You must be a masochist to love a modern leper on his last leg.

This evening I saw show! I haven't been to one in over a month (Buck 65 and Cadence Weapon) but tonight I busted that cycle. I saw Devon Floyd the lead singer of The Two Minute Miracles and Wax Mannequin. All were really great and funny and raw and awesome. I bought cds so they could pay for gas and if I had room would have told them they could sleep on my floor and eat my food.

The shows coming up are The Constantines with Ladyhawk and City and Colour. And of course Folk Fest in August. Hopefully some more people will deign to come here in the next few months.

I'm about to start the third season of Battlestar Galactica, and HOLY SHIT. The show went in a completely different direction than I expected and my oh my it has the most second actiest second act around.

The other night I had a dream I was listening to a 50's jazz song by a women I think was named Edita. The song I heard was one I had never heard before and had never heard of the person. It included a last.fm blurb and everything, it was weird and awesome. This happened like the day after I read Kenzie's blog about pretty much the same thing. Was my brain just emulating what I read and kind of wanted to happen, or was it collective unconscious working it's magic!

So, I'm watching So You Think You Can Dance, because I like it, and a guy danced to a Chris Garneau song and it made me happy.

Oh uhm, people and things that are awesome

The fact that Chief Tyrrel always calls lieutenants 'LT'
The book The Time Traveler's Wife
The giant Feist poster I bought for 7$ and the awesome vinyl I got for a dollar a piece
The Scottish band Frightened Rabbit
The Wooden Sky formerly known as Friday Morning's Regret
The album from Thoa and the Get Down Stay Downs
The sublime Chris Garneau
The new Cloud Cult album
The movie In Brouges
The mii I made that looks like God and is named GOD!
The mii I made called jesus.
The glass of Alexander Keith's finest India Pale Ale I was given after a grueling nine hour shift in front of a 700 degree pizza oven in which I made at least 50 over the course of 4 hours

I forget what happened end of season two ... OH RIGHT. Awesome. I also perked up when I heard Baby's Romance on SYTYCD, which is coincidentally the only song of his I know.

... plus I think Tyrol is my favourite.
