Memphis was good to the Shins and the Shins were good to Memphis. The show was great last night. I didn't get in until like 3:30 because they played an encore performance that added like 4 songs onto the set. Wow... long but fun.

The opening acts were good as well. I'd never heard the Aislers before and I didn't really love them live but I would like to hear the actual album before I make a judgement. I will say that they were very original sounding which gets them tons of points in my book.

I don't think Eric had as much fun as Joe or I did but that's probably because he had never really heard the Shins and was only coming to keep us company.

Afterwards we ate at CK's Diner which is like a bad Wafflehouse because Caitie recommended it. Now I know why I never go there. It wasn't that great and the orange juice was overpriced. At the time I was so hungry that I didn't care and I'm almost immune to food poisoning so I didn't suffer nearly as bad as Eric did.

A very fun night I must say. I'll have to go to the Hitone more often.
