OMG IT WENT SO WELL.
She even invited me to go to Toronto and meet her, her lab and check out the campus. And pretty much gave me a sales pitch. IM GOING TO GO THROW UP HOLY FUCK.

Last year I wasted so much time and money at that festival and I didn't see very many shows. If I wanted to drink, then I had to only go to shows within walking distance and then take an expensive cab back to my campsite. If I wanted to not drink and drive to each show I had to pay for parking each time. There is probably a way to do it better, but I didn't know Calgary very well either. I'll come down and plan better if I like the lineup! It would appear that there are many Calgary boarders that would gladly help you out. Come on down. Everyone included. Werd. Last year I had to play nurse for my sister so it was tough helping out anyone else. I doubt she'll tear another achillies so I'm likely available for tour guiding and even potentially as a bed if one of my roommates is away. Though I'll likely volunteer again so that takes up a bit of time. HEY SOULY, YOU SHOULD VOLUNTEER! FREE WRIST BAND AND YOU MEET AWESOME PEOPLE!

Cabbing would sexually suck. Use the train more!

I am super excited about the curators this year and very curious to see what they bring to the table. Plus any chance to see Thee Oh Sees again is highly welcome! Sled Island is the greatest thing to happen in the city of Calgary year after year. Fuck the Stampede, this is where it's at. It's essentially a smaller version of SXSW. There are about 200 bands that roll through the city and play roughly 20 clubs for four days. It's a great way to see larger bands in intimate settings. Broken Social Scene at the Legion, Red Fang at the Palomino, Japandroids/Ladyhawk at Broken City and Okkervil River in a fucking church are probably the most memorable for me. I think that the Sasquatch crew should make an attempt to come down from the NW this year for Sled Island! I also highly recommend volunteering for this festival. I met tons of really great people, plus Obvi the benefit of a free wristband.

I just scored a free pair of tickets to see Marilyn Manson this Friday night. I've never seen him before and I'm not really a fan, but this will be a great place to people watch. I would have loved to go. Don't listen much anymore but was a big fan in my moody teen days.

Fuck hahaha I just remembered how hard it was for pea to blow up his whale last year. That thing took forever and he wouldn't let anyone help. One of the highlights of my weekend. That hour or so outside the banana hammock was pure fucking gold. No doubt. You fuckers kidnapped me but it was the best kidnapping ever. Also, no need to fight. More than enough Fat Sarah to go around. (that ones for you, Pea)

I've got my lineup for Fri and Sat and got through half of the artists on Sunday, but then I went off Percocet so I never finished listening to them lol. I'll have my lineup by the end of the week. Also mine might be a bit off since narcotics influenced a lot of my choices.

Although I'm pretty sure I convinced him to take a break and let me blow it for awhile.
Cough.

Jesus Christ. You're missing the entire point of a beach ball dance party if you think Arctic fucking Monkeys or Tame Impala are the best options. Don't worry pea. We won't let the hipsters ruin this for you.
