Yesterday I ended up going to Music Midtown with my good friend Alison and her cousin. I had a good time. Chris Robinson and The New Earth Mud were suprisingly good; I expected them to be a hippy jam band tyoe thing, and they were to an extent, but most of it was very bluesy. I can listent o a good blues guitarist for hours....

I ended up going to Fight Paris' house last night. It was really fun, and Fight paris fucking rocks. They are the best hardcore band I have ever heard come out of Atlanta; unfortunately, the guys in the band aren't that scene, so they didn't get a lot of support here from the hxc kids. They are leaving right now for California. It angers me...

I missed a chance to see P-Funk last year. I'm an idiot.
I'm mortified at the very idea of "The Doors of the 21st Century". I like Astbury's spin on it - the idea that this is almost archival work, giving fans a new opportunity to see this music performed live by some of its original creators. But the very idea that anybody would add something as stupid as "...of the 21st Century" to their band names calls for one hell of a bitchslap. Although their "let's see how many drummers we can get sued by" game sounds fun.
The other thing that surprises me about the lineup is that I remember seeing a tribute to Jim Morrison in which I think all three surviving members performed a string of Doors hits with alternating frontmen. Astbury was, imho (and with all due respect to his snazzy body of work with The Cult), far and away the worst singer. His wooden delivery of "Alabama Song" was definitely the low point of the entire affair.
Meh.
Have a great time. Glad to hear you're charmed right now.

Tonight I have a choice between four different activities: a house show/party, Against Me! at the Echo Lounge, The Black Lips at the Neutron Bomb, and a party at my friend Megan's house.
So. Do I go se my favorite band in the best venue in the city? Do I go see the Black Lips with this hot girl? Do I go to...

HA! What a wonderful problem to have, sir!
Can you swing by the party and then hit the Against Me! show or the Black Lips? Perhaps my advice would be to drop the house party and try to squeeze in the other 3?
But what am I saying? I've never had to make decisions like this before.....

Damn, I almost forgot. I left out one of the most bizarre and hilarious things that happened at that party Friday night.
While canvassing the damage to the house in the morning, the girls went into one of the upstairs bedrooms. Next to the bed, on the bedside table, was a cup. Inside the cup was some half dissoled, thick white stuff.

Normally I gauge a party's success based soley on how many farm animals and mariachi band members are strewn about the floor, but I'm not sure how your scenario fits into that scale.
Blarg... I'm fucking exhausted. What a weekend.
Friday night, as I previously mentioned, was the annual joint birthday party for my friends Megan and Becky. It was a pimps and hoes themed party, and nearly everyone there dressed up. I dug through every item of clothing I own looking for a pimp costume, but to no avail. So I ended up going as a manwhore;...

Tonight is the annual joint Megan/ Becky birthday extravaganza, so we will all be hauling ourselves up to Alpharetta to boogie down.
This is the last party of this sort I'll be attending. Megan and Becky, along with the other Megan, are moving to Orlando this summer. I've been going to these parties since my freshman year of high school.

Dammit man, the women I picked are Danger Girls! I would so marry that Abbey Chase dame. Although, ever since some damn Gypsy woman in Berkely told me that I'm going to marry a blonde woman, I've been fighting my attraction to them ever since. No fate but what I make, you filthy gypsy.
Damn right you are listening to Led "Greatest Fucking Band Ever" Zeppelin.
Sorry to hear about your End Of An Era Party. I remember those...

Why does MC Chris sound so familiar to me?? I'm not the expert on all things beatwise, but, still it rings a bell.
Sister/Brother used to live in Norcross... Driving home from Radiohead I did a 360 in Tifton GA, who proudly proclaim on billboards that they are ON THE INTERENT!

Nothing makes you feel as pathetic as when your crutch is temorarily removed.
Blah, I'm lame.
Anyway, say you want to get a tattoo that represents two people being apart for three years. I learned today that that particular sentiment is best represented by a giant scorpion with the head of a panther.
Remember the scorpanther the next time you miss someone.

There was a party tonght. And an SGATL event.
Instead of going to either one, I stayed home and played Scrabble.
(Actually, it's because I can't drink til Monday, and I was already tired as fuck, so I wasn't up to being sober amongst a bunch of drunkards.)

And you say I'm a fucking grammar nazi.
You know what I like to do sometimes?
I like to skip all my classes and sit around the house and read, with sporadic breaks to play guitar.
Today was such a day. Ahh, relaxation.

replace 'with sporadic breaks to play guitar' with 'with sporadic breaks to nap in random locations' and that is my day tomorrow. word.

Sounds like one out of three college days for me. But with less drugs. Unless you're not disclosing all.
I just played three games of Scrabble over the course of four or five hours.
Aaaaah yeah!

You wouldn't be so smug about it if you'd played against me. I would have totally kicked your ass.
And then we'd have played scrabble, in which your ass would also have received a thorough kicking.

Surge? SURGE?!! I remember when that sweet nectar first came out. The Circle (an old group of friends) and I went to a place called Gameworks. This Steven Spielberg funded arcade had Surge spewing forth from a golden fountain. I'm not sure what the human consumption limit is for that drink, but I must have come dangerously close for my eyes turned from Gunslinger Blue to Junkie Fiend Green. It was a dark day when the Coca Cola people stopped making that
