Holy shit today rocked.
It started out with me waking up and actually getting up on time (which is an amazing feat for me during the summer). I instantly went downstairs to take my medicine and had a margarita from the night before.
I then proceeded to go up to my room where I booked my ASS off for about two hours. I booked my band Binary a gig at the new Brewery for July 15th, and we'll be opening for two other bands, so I'm psyched as hell. I also booked about four more bands for the series. If you live around NYC or you're coming up for any of those dates, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do me a favor and buy tickets here.
After that I recieved a call from one of my best friends inviting me to go to the mall with her, so of course with nothing left at home to do but book, I gladly accepted. I took my shower, combed my hair, put on my freshly cleaned jeans, and my new favorite Valient Thorr shirt.
We got there and walked around for quite a while. She dragged me into her chick stores and I dragged her into my music stores to look at some new cds. It was really cool, we walked into Pac Sun and they were playing old Radiohead, but nobody knew what it was, it pissed me off. Oh well, not everybody likes/knows old Radiohead.
Eventually she and I took a break since she was bright and decided that morning it would be alright to wear platform shoes to the mall (where we walked for about a good two hours), so we took a break on one of the ginormous couches in the center of the mall. We talked about the types of girls that I liked, and vice versa. I joked about how I'd know the girl for me would point out the fact that I had a Valient Thorr shirt on.
So eventually we got up (after she was "rested") and went upstairs to look around a little bit. We passed this incredibly white store a couple of times, and for some strange reason I felt like I needed to go in there since I hadn't before. Soon enough we passed it again and since it was so clean my friend goes "let's go see what it's like".
We walked around for a while and were wowed at the immaculateness (if that's a word) of it all. Everything was in glass cases and the clothes were organized by wardrobe, it was insane. My friend and I spoke to the owner of the store about it a little bit, and it was actually quite interesting. Plus they had this incredibly beautiful girl who was pretty much silent most of the time this other woman was throwing her schtick at us. So after we heard that I looked at their jewelery and made a couple of jokes about how I was afraid to touch the stuff and whatnot.
And then it happened.......
"Hey, you like Valient Thorr??"
The amazing girl who I spoke about before starts talking with me about Valient Thorr and about how she loves them and Interpol and Elefant and all of these bands. We must've talked for twenty minutes and I told her about my show coming up in July. Eventually she pointed out my friend looked bored so I made my last googly eyes with her and left, only to let out a huge breath of air.
My cheeks hurt for about an hour after we left the store, I was smiling so hard. I was fucking man-swooning the entire time I was at the mall, it was insane.
I plan to go to the mall on Sunday and try to get her number (even though she lives in Raleigh therefore prolly has a bf).
"....tell me your name, tell me your story, cuz I'm into it, run me through like like a misfit...."
