thursday night antics
Last night we ate a lot of fried food and then went to Trash Bar to see The Morning After and enjoy another open bar. I honestly can't remember the last time I was so entertained by a band, and especially a lead singer. Anytime a lead singer threatens the rest of his band with bodily harm and breaks several items of equipment, you know you're in for a treat. Hal is kind of the male version of Karen O with a little Mick Jagger thrown in for good measure, you never knew what was going to come out of his mouth next, but it was damn fun to watch. The Morning After is a relatively new band, but they packed the room and I'm sure great things are in store for their fans.
A lovely person sent us the new Interpol album. We know that ethically speaking, downloading music months before it comes out is kind of wrong. BUT we also will obviously be buying the album when it comes out in stores and getting several copies to give to our friends and parents and grandparents and 5th cousins (and you will do the same), so it's OK right?!? We have 20 minutes left to go with the download. Such excitement, it's kind of like having a baby! Only a baby that sounds like Joy Division with really styled hair. Whatever works.
TONIGHT.... while Nora is home doing all of her last minute packing and painting her new bedroom...
The Bravery are playing at Bar 13, 10:30. If you mention the always fabulous Michael T at the door, it's open bar from 11-12. Open bar, hot band, why not? Check out their MySpace profile for a new song too. Yum!
There will also be free stuff all over the place at Lit tonight, as someone raided the Sony catalog so go give Jason a smooch and get free copies of CDs from Patti Smith, Franz Ferdinand, Modest Mouse, The Raveonettes, etc. etc. etc.
Then there is Up! at the Delancey or Ultragrrrl (who has returned to blogging, hooray!) at Crobar.
Or you can stay home... and pack... and pack... and listen to the new Interpol album. See... not so bad afterall.
