4.4

It's my mom's birthday today, hurray!

Vampire Weekend was a great show.  They were pretty good as entertainers and frickin' awesome as musicians.  One of the better shows I've seen sober and one of the very few shows I think that was better for being sober.  The sound was great and you could really pick out the individual parts of the songs as well as understand the lyrics.   "Oxford Comma" sounded a little off but everything else was pitch perfect and most of it sounded better live than on CD.  They seemed like nice guys too - the sort of clean cut college kids who enjoy microbrews and high grade weed but not in excess.

Definitely check them out if you get the chance.  I'm sure they'll be back at a bigger venue sooner rather than later.

Call or email ( adirgeforthedead at yahoo ) if you still want to watch Freaky Forest tonight! No pressure if you're feeling too busy, though.
