Kerfuffle the concert

Paul bought tickets for us to go to the Kerfuffle before Christmas concert down at the arena.

Before we left we got our first snow.

I love the colors of the old train/our current study.

Matt and Kim turned out way more interesting than their albums. The Kim girl had a crazy body and insane amount of energy. She walked out and danced on top of the crowd.

Børns was pretty good. Third Eye Blind was pretty awesome as well but they had a weird churchy vibe going on in between sets. Terry got hit on by a girl and people were smoking up everywhere.

The Bavarian Einhörnchen Squirrel came down with us! We bought him earlier in the day at Neo.

Little Green Cars

On Thursday we headed down to Pittsburgh for the Little Green Cars concert at Thunderbird Café. For only $10 it was of the best concerts of my life. The venue was smalm and had only about 40 people. The band was better than the album, and even played songs that haven't been relased. All of the band harmonized well and the girls voice was crazy.
At the end of the show, we all went outside so they could serenade a girl who came to see them, and didn't have her passport to get in.

Years and Years

I have fallen in with this band called Years and Years after hearing (e:terry) play their album for the millionth time. I think I listed to their album three times today and all the songs are pretty bumping. I can imagine Terry singing most of them in my head.

The lead singer is also one of the gays, and a few of their songs reflect that. Pretty neat.

Take a listen. Just playing then now makes me want to dance in the living room.

Coincedently enough they are coming to Toronto this September 14th for only $20 CAD. Tickets are all sold out though ;(.

Glass Animals

We went to the Glass Animals concert at Babeville with (e:xandra) and (e:yesthatcasey). It's one of those concerts that was way better than the album. We even saw the cute farmer boy and I made some awkward small talk with him.

Excision at the Town Ballroom

(e:paul) and I got to go out to see the Excision show at Town Ballroom tonight while (e:terry) hopefully relaxed a little from tax time. Like the Datsik show it was a packed house and out of control.

The opener was kind of boring and lame but Excision had to be the most ridiculous sound I have ever witnessed. It reminds me I need to seriously get some real earplugs. Instead immediately stuffed some napkins in my ear so I wouldn't go deaf. It worked well enough because I don't have tinnitus like I usually do after the Town Ballroom.

The bass vibrated your whole body - skin, eyes, hands, everything was shaking. The pressure of the sound in the opening to his set was almost too much. His projections were pretty amazing too on the big robot speaker set they had set up.

There were also a ton of cute sweaty beardy bros there. Even though they make me feel old already it's fun to dance with them. I'd like to mosh too but I can't promise that I or someone else isn't going to end up really punching somebody.

Lisa was there going crazy per the usual, and invited us to her birthday at Lift this Friday. We haven't gone there but that could be fun. I have to think it's probably the same crowd of that goes to this type of EDM.

The snowbanks have become so high its redonk. Paul and I decided to document them.

tUnE-yArDs

I don't think I've ever heard such a crazy voice before. The show was at a giant old church complex called Mr. Small's fun house.

Everyone in the crowd got so pumped for their best and most popular song - Gangsta.

Erica's showcase

(e:czarkasm) had an hourlong show tonight at Nietzsche's. (e:Terry) and i got there a little late but she absolutely rocked it. For her closing mashup of Sweet Dreams, I heard the two guys next to us talking about how they excited they we're for it.

Now I'm on the way to Kevin's 22nd birthday at Essex.
