Ben Harper and Damian Marley at Red Rocks is one of the best shows I have ever seen. At two seperate points during the show I was saying to myself, "Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god". My mind was blown.

Up this week I'll see two or maybe 3 shows if I am lucky. The guarantees: Shooter Jennings and Cat Power(solo show)....

haha! yeah, they were the quintessential record store snobs. they would absolutely sneer unless you were getting some 15 year old out of print japanoise limited edition EP, but chances are excellent that's exactly what I was there for. but this time at barts, I was just looking for the raconteurs cd and the latest cat power album. these things should be right up their alley! but, of course, no luck.

who owns bart's now? seems to be all the same people working there as always, bart himself included.
wardy:
how many Marleys are there???? surreal

And I haven't gotten a chance to go by that pizza place yet. But they ship the provel from St. Louis and their toasted ravs are actually meat filled, not cheese filled like I was afraid of!

"Hey Thurston I'm at Grant Park right now and.."
"Grant Park? What for?"
"Lollapalooza"
"Lollapalooza? Lollapalooza isn't today"
"Sure it is! Today, tomorrow, and sunday."
"Oh yah? I just thought it was a one day festival. Yah, umm, our guest list isn't there yet. We're in Detroit, so we'll have it there tomorrow."
"Ok, Be Your Own Pet is one of the first bands playing...

I have an in person job interview, then a phone interview, then I'm getting on the bus and heading to the airport where I will end my evening in Seattle Washington. I've never been there, and I will only be there for less then 36 hours in total, but I'm going to make the best of it!

See you Sunday.

the folks fest is gonna be nutty this year. I'd really like to catch the mabon one of these times, actually. I got a thang for celtic music.

I didn't really see the go team, sadly. at that point I hadn't made up my mind to abandon the folks I was with and ride my own concert flow. but they were perfectly happy in the 45th row because they were there to consume as many different drugs as possible, while I was there to experience the show as clearly and intensely as I could. when the go team was on, I was still on their fuzzy little planet... but I knew I couldn't waste a perfectly good flaming lips show like that! I strapped on my rock helmet, split off and headed for the front. \\m/ mad \\m/

I've leaving that quote there for awhile. I'm treating it sort of like a mantra.

I just got back from the dentist. It was my first trip there in 6 years. They didn't find any problems. In fact they told me, "you have an...

damn, not a single problem and you haven't been in six years. and the only issue was from you cleaning your teeth too hard. not bad.
i have an intense fear of the dentist. i blame my orthodontist for this. i guess that's what you get for causing me intense pain all those years ago. bastard.

Nah... rented a mustang last time I was in town. Decided I needed to spoil myself a little bit.

You guys are coming tonight, right?

when they had the usda/fda inspecting the plant for certification they kept asking about cows and it took them a bit of time to understand that it wasn't a dairy.

yeah, I thought the heat kind of sucked some energy out. I was forced to hang out by the bar in the balcony and drink cold beer all night! plus, the sound was way better up there than down front at the far right where I started out.
turin:
holy fuck that was a good show!

I've always hated the filmore, but not only did the raconteurs take my "best filmore show" prize away from los lobos, that moves into one of the best shows I've ever seen. goddamn, great rock!

I can't hear a fucking thing, by the way.
