let’s have bizarre celebrations!

Last night was Of Montreal… which was really excellent! I went with Nathan, Ariana, Drew, (and some of their friends were also there, but we didn’t see them)

There were two opening bands, so it was definitely about 11 before Of Montreal actually started playing… but worth the wait.

During the wait, I also got two phone calls from two different people about homework, and I actually managed to help both of them (I think)…

They were a little different from how they sound recorded, which is good I suppose, because their recorded sound doesn’t seem like it would make for as exciting of a concert as this was.

Tonight, however, was the Ryan Adams show, and though I was in the group bringing him here, I decided I was really not up for two concerts two nights in a row, so I decided to go with my meeting for engineering campus tours and chem homework instead. I think it was a good choice, and apparently no one cares whether you work a particular show or not. Either way, next up on the local concert scene is Bright Eyes in a couple of weekends — this fall is kind of amazing in terms of bands I like ending up in this town!
