I was chilling at the Mountain Goats show last night, when an attractive young woman decided to occupy the seat next to me. There were several open seats in the area, so it was obvious she had singled me out. She introduced herself, asked me if I was solo (which I was), then eventually said she wanted to be my concert buddy. I'm not sure she understood the forces of nature which attracted her to me. Aside from my charm, intellect, and good looks, I attributed this one to the tee shirt I was wearing. Never underestimate the power of...

Please tell me that story's true.

I Thought about saying, "maybe she thought you were gay," but if you were really wearing that shirt then there's no way.

Completely true story. She even offered to buy me a beer.

What a train wreck the beginning of that show was though. It's a credit to John Darnielle's quick wit that he was able to talk his way through the hold ups. That made the show infinitely better. It's still tough for me to comprehend that Gramma's friend thinks the Mountain Goats are boring live.

I loved when that one guy was shouting a song request from the audience (I think it was California Song) and John said "Well we kinda have to stick to the setlist we have, otherwise I would get on the piano and play it." Then the guy said "I bet you don't even remember how to play it." and John says "I'll take that as a challenge." and starts playing it.

They went completely off track a few times and I loved it.

I believe that was the song, "Family Happiness." Then he gave his guitar to the piano player and said, "he remembers how to play everything." John remembered the words to the song at least. That certainly didn't keep the crowd from yelling requests. I'm sure you were upfront, but I was near the back, so I couldn't barely hear parts of the conversations he was having with the crowd.

I hate it when they do that. I was stuck seeing the Dodos in the balcony at the Aladdin where no one else was dancing. I learned to start taking a fake to the all ages shows as well.

So I lost a couple good concert going friends tonight, by way of the shoosh. I rarely shoosh people, and it's never strangers, I'll just move if strangers are annoying me. But when you are hanging out with your friends, you feel obligated to stick around.

It was Okkervil River, and to my friend's credit, Titus Andronicus was loud, and the music playing in between the bands was louder (WTF?), so we were all in yelling mode. Then Okkervil started, and bored the hell out of us all for the first six songs playing mostly new stuff. Then they toned it down, and started playing old acoustic hits. I have a pretty high threshold for friends ruining shows, but after they screamed their way through the first two mellow songs, I finally shooshed them near the beginning of the third song. Big mistake.

I then moved away from them, and the show kicked ass from there on. It was all old stuff, and outstanding. I'll never hear the end of it from them though, especially at concerts. You know that type, right? Skin is too thin? I will forever be known as the shoosher, no fault of their own. Maybe you don't know people like this, you are lucky.

Titus Andronicus was outstanding by the way, amazing even. They went from a giant pile of loud noise to a tight sounding loud band, and the lyrics shinned through.
