Busy weekend.  Johnnyork show on Saturday went well.  Having rehearsal that afternoon and then playing that night was rough though – it felt like I played two shows.  We had 4 groupies!  whoot!  Went to Merry Anns with the band after, and everyone except me got something covered in cheese:

Earlier in the afternoon, before our show, I went to the Urbana Sweetcorn Festival with Neil, our bassist, and met a couple of our friends, including our drummer, down there.  We watched Living Blue play – I’ve been seeing them steadily play around town for 4 years now.  They used to be called the Blackouts.  Honestly, I liked them better years ago, maybe b/c so much was new to me, or maybe because they actually sounded a little less professional/weary :

Getting up for church on Sunday was a little rough b/c we didn’t get from MA’s till kinda late, but it worked out. 

Watched Finding Nemo yesterday, which was pretty funny actually.  er, preeeeeetttttyyyy funnnnnnyyyyyy.  My friend Darla is even in the movie:

Ooo first Excel of the semester tonight.  7PM, at the HUB on Springfield, one block west of Lincoln. 

Ciao (on my moterbyke!)

Currently Listening Carnavas By Silversun Pickups

Loaded a new song into the player.  Silversun Pickups, as promised.   Has a slowed intro, but ride it through…it picks up.  Oh man and it’s got a delicious dis-re-assemble near the end.  Also, listen carefully to what that Siamese Dream-esque fuzzed/layered guitar is actually doing.   A perfect song.  Give a listen.  The whole album holds up like this.

New Silversun Pickups album…incredible!  They sound like Siamese Dream-era Pumpkins.  in a good way.  I’ll put a song in the player – i just have to pick one.  I feel 15 again.  In a good way

Went to the Hub today.  good times.  It’d been awhile.

Trying Body by Friz, which apparently calls for me eating 6 high-protein meals per day.  I’m thinking McD’s, KFC, woori jib, pizza hut, hot wok, and forthmeal.  can’t wait to start losing weight.  haha.
