Day 125 — Wolfmother

[for May 5] Their set rocked. Being down in the photo pit for the first three songs was fantastic. Then getting spit back out into the crowd was devastating. To go from the view above to the one below in ten short minutes is pretty humbling. But it gave me an excellent opportunity to observe some audience drama about punches and shoes and cops. Here’s a little taste of Wolfmother for you: Today I’m off…

Day 120 — Brandonian

He’s busy blogging here this week as the MIM 2007 Web Guru, but he had time to come out for dinner and a movie with me. We saw the Aqua Teen flick. There’s not much I can say about it except damn.

Day 116 — Gestures

I’m not sure what these flowers are called but they smell amazing. At first I thought Gestures was burning some candles whose scents seeped out of the doors. Turns out it was all nature, baby. It was a beautiful day to spend downtown, traipsing up and down South Main with the fabulously pseudonymous FearlessVK, taking care of some crucial business and stuffing our faces with greasy, overpriced Arcade food. Tomorrow night’s the monthly art trolley…
