Islands

Last night was a good time! I picked Uncle Tom up and we headed for the Black Cat. We got front row parking. There was a small line out front, we walked down to the pizza joint to yell at the for not having gravy for gravy fries that is on their menu and everytime Tom sees it and wants them but they never have gravy. Then we just bullshitted in line and watched a guy puke and walk across the street and puke in the middle of the road and we talked about how old we're getting. It was a younger kid maybe 16 fucked up on something. It was funny. We went in when the doors opened, got a couple beers and played the new pinball machine pictured below. I kicked ass finally since Tom usually buries me. Some guy came up and told us about it. He goes to the club just to have beer and play pinball. He was cool. Bought us a couple games so he could jump in our rotation. We went upstairs to see Cadence Weapon up on stage, he is a canadian rapper. Which really wasn't what I was expecting. But he sounded really good, most of his music/beats whatever you wanna call it sounded like video game music, kind of like Becks last album. He jumped down in the crowd and was jumping around and everything, just having a good time. Tom bought his album and got him to sign it and we took a pic with him.

Next up was Why? These were 3 talented guys. The drumer was also playing xylophone at the same time, the singer was playing a drum and keyboard at the same time, the third played a guitar and keyboard at the same time. The music was really good but the guys voice killed me. Tom thought he sounded like They might be giants but after thinking for a while, he sounded like the singer from Primus "My name is Mudd" except not as cool and rapping a little more. So We ditched and played some more pinball.

We got back in time for Islands This was great. These were the band geeks people made fun of in High School. The had 7 people, playing lots of instruments from sax, 2 violins, a recorder, clarinet, keyboards, bass, guitar, drums, I think that was all. This was fun, they were all jumping around, the music was great, they are all extremely talented. These Canadians rocked the house!

A little dark but can't lighten it at work

I am the Champion!!
