Sixpence

I went to go watch Sixpence None the Richer at the House of Blues with Olivia and her buddies last night. Not the hugest fan of them, but I went anyways. It turned out to be a pretty good show actually. I was probably in the closest spot possible, front row, center, literally I was leaning on the stage with my forearms about 3 ft from Leigh Nash (lead singer). Felt kind of bad for wasting that spot, some bigger fan probably deserved it. But oh well.

She's got a impressive voice, even more so in a live small venue setting, but the thing that struck me most is how tiny she is. She's freaking small.

Oh yeah, and there were 2 opening bands. The second one was LUCE, and the whole time they were playing, everyone was like "who the hell are these guys?". Until they played the song "Good Day", then you could feel a wave of realization sweep across the crowd. If you don't know what song I'm talking about, it's a MIX101.9 kind of song that goes "it's a pretty good day.... [dabadaba] tomorrow" (there's words that go instead of [dabadaba] but since I don't know them I decided to do it Chras style).

Anyways, after cooking on Valentine's Day and the concert last night, I felt a little bit unmanly. If that's even possible for a man like me. Had the itch to play some football, but too much trouble to organize. So I played craft this afternoon with the crew, and as expected, the testosterone flow returned in no time. Yeah baby, yeah.

Currently playing on my Winamp: Boyz II Men - A Song For Mama
I have no good explanation why. This is one of my favorite albums of all time, and I've been listening to the songs on it a lot lately. By the way, if anyone can guess my top 10 favorite CDs, they get a kiss from me (on the cheek). Or I'll buy you a drink sometime, if you'd rather that. Send me an email dudo509@yahoo.com or IM me. Or just tell me in person or on the phone. Yes, I guess that makes this an official contest, so get your entry submitted soon.
