Well hello all...

Another few days since ive posted, and some pretty awesome things have happened. I worked 8-1 on tues, then went to class. After class, i met up with SLOKA!!! He came out all the way from pittsburgh to head down to columbus with me to see DMB. We carpooled with good ole gary budar and his lovley girlfriend lauren, who incidentally was in my management class for a few weeks...and i didnt even know. Im sorry lauren...i suck.

The show was awesome. Heard moe. open, and they were ok. Not great, sounded like a mumbling phish, but still pretty good. This however, was the first time i had ever seen a tour opener for DMB, so expectations were high. Here is the set that they played.

Too Much
When The World Ends
If I Had It All
Crush
Rhyme & Reason
Bartender

Where Are You Going

Incredible. Dave messed up some lyrics here and there, especially in When the World Ends, which made it about 2 minutes long(which is fine IMO). Sloka and i had a great time. Great seats, good crowd and fun atmosphere. We got out to the parking lot, ended sitting there for about an hour, while i talked to katie on the phone for a bit. Got home around 230, put sloka to bed and talked to katie for a bit more. She finally got to the college part of her trip, so she has a dorm room with a phone. I finally got to bed around 330, and was up at 645 to get myself and sloka through the shower. So i could be at work by 8. Worked 8-1 again, then class...then it was time for Red and Wags day out. We went to DMB night 2. Drove down, had some fun times, some serious talk and alot of fun. Tasty dinner at Max and Ermas, then saw the best DMB concert i have ever been to. Which is about 10. Heres the set for last nights show.

What a show. Dreaming Tree would have been worth the 50 bucks just to hear, but pay for what you get? Both those songs havent come around in years. Cry freedom and dancing nancies are definate rarities too. What a time.

At any rate, red and i had a great time. The drive was so fun. We had some pretty funny moments. Also got to talk to katie again while in the parking lot. Shes also back online from time to time, look for her! She also updated her xanga....but im still missin her...

Today was work and class all day. Boo. Plus im ass tired, but i have a new rising stars trade paperback to read to make me happy. Im gonna do some work on the training docs, eat my taco salad from pollyeyes(mm, tasty) then read me some comics. Im tired and cranky..so im audi. Lookin forward to halo'ing it up with B this weekend...

Peace out, yall..
