Let's write a post that everybody can read!

What did I do today?

-In what may be an ill-advised splurge I bought two pre-sale tickets for Live105's Not So Silent Night, which I'll be attending for the first time since 1998. Appearing this year:

Muse (HELL YEAH)

AFI (MEH)

30 Seconds To Mars (I hear their fans get pissed when you call them "Jared Leto's band")

Vampire Weekend (Cool)

Metric (I love that one song so much)

Now what to do about that second ticket...

-Had lunch with me mum in South Beach at Java House where I'll be playing a show on Saturday afternoon (with other singer-songwriters including Mr. Andrew, Ruce, Meredith Edgar and Thomas Trono). It's a pretty cozy room, and the five of us should be able to fill it quite tightly. I wonder if some of the cafe's grizzled regular clientele will be there, and if so, how they'll deal with us touchy-feely indie songwriter types taking over their prized anachronistic waterfront greasy spoon.

-Ran like a fool at the Larkspur Gold's.

-Taught an unusually smooth and efficient class in Marin tonight.

-Stopped by Bazaar Cafe, arriving JUST as they were wrapping up the open-mic. Aw nuts. I would've heard the last 45 seconds of music if I hadn't stopped by Andrew's car, where Charlie (the world's third most awesome dog) was sitting in the backseat.

-Everyone has a show on Friday night!
