do you work at party down catering? Basically. I work as a bartender/server for the banquet team at a private social club. Are we having fun yet? |

Working Avenged Sevenfold on the 13th, it'll be a shit show. I hate this town. May have Yukon Blonde coming through soon, that would be neat.

Yukon Blonde puts on a really good show. I saw them about a month ago in Kelowna opening for We Are The City in the back of some small church multipurpose room. It was a weird setting, but Yukon Blonde blew it up.
Definitely see them if you have a chance.

The National were great tonight. In particular, the all acoustic closing number Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks. No microphones, just a couple acoustic guitars, a quiet trumpet, a tambourine and all of them singing. Really really gorgeous.
Also.. fuck me the Orpheum is a great little venue.
Double fuck me: Wye Oak cancelled and Local Natives started at 7. We got there at 8. ugh.

Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks. I love this song. I'm going to look for tickets to this show now just because of that. Also, this will be the third time I've seen Local Natives open for someone. They seriously need to get into the studio and make another damn album. (or did they?) |

I just learned that Audrey thought the lyrics were, "I'll explain everything to the geese..."
...not that geeks makes much more sense, but still pretty funny

Holy balls The National with Local Natives and Wye Oak (they showed up for the second show) was fantastic. I got to meet both members of Wye Oak between sets and everything. They told a joke or two between songs and said "you guys are lucky, last night I went on a 5 minute rant telling dick jokes. It wasnt even funny, it was just me saying dick a bunch of times" Empty, was it funny? Even knowing the lyrics, I could swear he was saying geese at the show. Haha Totally sounded like he was saying geese to me too. Could have been the other 800 people singing along, but it sort of makes sense with the mention of swans and water in the song. |

Well, the good news is that apparently they're playing a lot of earlier stuff this time around since they aren't supporting a new album necessarily (or so I was told by the person who went to the show I was too sick to go to a few weeks ago). But yeah, I would go to that show if not just for this: I do agree though. I am indifferent to Toothbrush since it just sounds like they were still trying to figure themselves out with that one, but then my favorite to least favorite pretty much goes chronologically, favorite being Easy Beat, least favorite being Shame Shame. |

The Avicii show in Calgary got moved to a much bigger venue (Big 4, same venue Bassnectar just sold out). Its a good move, but tickets are still hella expensive. They're releasing the next batch on Saturday. I still think I'm going to pass, but lord am I tempted.
