ダンス・ダンス・ダンス
Just got back from a concert with "We Are The Fury", "Rock Kills Kids" and Morningwood in that order.
Only heard about a song or two from the Furries, but my initial impressions were strongly colored by their clothes. That and the lead singer was kinda like an American version of Hyde, but with a crappier voice and way less cool. They didn't suck, but they weren't particularly compelling. Ave bought their CD so I might try and borrow that from him sometime, but we'll see.
Kids was, eh. Had one or two songs that were fun and dance-y, but besides that they were just mediocre. Yeah.
And Morningwood wasn't nearly as fun as they were last time. I think because the venue was a lot larger this time around, and they weren't the main show. Instead of going into the audience and handcuffing and humping a random dude, she instead went into the audience, handcuffed a random girl, and brought her on stage and made out and nearly stripped her down. And the music was fun of course, but the audience was seriously a bunch of emo kids. Even right in front of the stage, there were just a handful of people dancing. Oh well.
And Jon had his 22nd on Friday night. The theme was funny hats. Sadly enough, my hat is not in that picture because it was stolen early on and was passed around like a cheap hooker for the rest of the night.
Anyway, it was.., fun. Old friends, the largest drink selection I've ever seen in an apartment, and a lot of frustration/aggression to work out due to hideous amounts of schoolwork. So, there was rampant alcoholism, dancing, grappling (which I suck at and lost at), and fisticuffs (which was too drunk to say anyone won). The only disappointing thing is that I left early-ish and in retrospect I think I would have liked to have stayed. Next time maybe!
Also had lunch with Li and Chris, who I have not seen in god knows how long.
In any case, the past two days have been a nice change in pace, and hopefully are harbingers of better days to come. I look forward to getting a new shortboard, getting some job interviews, not having two things due everyday, more random concerts, and maybe a trip to Horsetail Falls.
