Show Last Friday


Last Friday was amazing. We got to play with Athens very own, Misfortune 500 (http://www.myspace.com/misfortune500). they are all super cool people that are really knowledgeable about music. the set they put on was incredible. my favorite part was when Chisolm sang through a megaphone. it reminded a lot of Big Black. the distorted vocals contrasted with the cleaner sustained guitars. very amazing music people. It was also a lot of fun eating with them afterwards at ihop. mmm MMM! Oodles of Noodles (www.myspace.com/oodlesofnoodles249) also put on a very psychedelic set. it doesn't take much for guitarist, Panda, to shred with his Memory Man. the drummer, Butters, is new at playing drums, but he looks so natural behind a set. he really is becoming an impressive drummer. he used to play bass and keys for the band. Triads (myspace.com/youstillarethelight) played a few new songs and covered The xx's intro song. it felt pretty solid. i think the show went very well. we've been listening to them a lot lately. i don't know, i just really dig that minimal catchy reverboverload break-up-song black hoodie music. i was so happy to see my friends spenser, zack, and jason at the show. i know they are pretty busy people. the photo seen is a poster that conner's girlfriend made. i thought it was pretty rad. i never got to compliment it to her, so here is my interweb shout out to Sarah. my friends jared and johnathan played that night as well. which was so freakin' cool. i love you guys. -Michael
