Oh dear

Tonight I met nick, chuckles, alex and his pal Joanna at slims for The dears show. I don't generally like slims as a venue, but wow oh wow, the dears did rock it. Poor Randall was sick and couldn't make it. I videoed some it for him, but nick made fun of me for living life thru a viewfinder. I seriously don't know how the dears aren't more famous. They're so amazing live. I could gush on further, but if you couldn't tell by the crappier than normal stick figures, I'm exhausted and it's time to go to bed and dream of the sound. So epic rock out!

Waiting for the lights

Tonight is turning out to be a bust. After spending a bajillion hours looking for parking (seriously we should have walked), we're finally at the independent to see the dears. They were about to come on stage when poof! the power went out. If they weren't my favorite band right now, I'd declare it a fail and head back on home. They say the lights'll be back on soon, but how soon is now?

Ooh! Murray's going on solo acoustic in the dark, yay!

update: it was amazing. murray did three acoustic songs before the power went back on. also, i've seen them loads of times over the years, but i have never seen them look so happy.

ps: this pic was before murray went on stage, it's me on the verge of pretend tears, lit by the glow of randall's iphone.
