i'm sitting here drinking, killing time until we leave to go see rilo kiley at avalon. i'm actually not really looking forward to the show, and not just because the new album is a musical disgrace. the fact that the show is at the avalon is crappy. it's a crappy venue. not as crappy as seeing a show at say, the roxy, but pretty damn near close.

i could almost just sell my tickets tonite on the street and i would be okay. however, the last time i did that with a band i had loved for years, it turned out to be their last tour, and that sucked. actually, that's happened to me twice. granted, their music didn't go downhill, i had just seen them so many times that the thought of being at a crowded show in the big ol' college town that is boston didn't really interest me much.

but we are going to meet up with phil and crew and have drinks at the bar in the back and laugh. seriously, have you seen the live video for rilo kiley's "Smoke Detector"? hilarious. in an uncool and i'm totally making fun of what you've become kinda way. and generally, i'm not that person anymore. but it's always fun to return to my youth. because how do you expect me to not poke fun at a dance in which the hand motion is the hand motion you use to take down/put up a smoke detector. i shit you not.

tomorrow i study all day.

sunday i go to NH while the home inspector inspects the new lake house.
