Nothing says "fun" like waking up smelling like smoke and being a touch hungover. :-)

Last night was one of the best nights I have had in a very long time. The venue was a cozy place right down the road from Colleen's apartment, so I rolled down there a little after nine with no problem. Everyone there was very friendly...kinda reminded me of the atmosphere of The Outback Lodge (which I miss very much now that I'm in DC). So I had a few beers, chatted with some people, and eventually caught up with some of the guys after they finished sound check.

Jae gave me a nice big hug and we talked about the upcoming tour. I might have found a show for them in DC for next month, so we talked about that and other things, and it was really cool. Later on Scott came up to me saying I looked familiar, so I introduced myself and we chatted off and on all night. He seems to be a very sweet guy, and the night was filled with moments of hilarity, including him putting a RAM button on his nipple ring, and then him gracefully dislodging a stream of toilet paper from my shoe, lmao. Good times. The whole crowd had a really family vibe to it, and there was a lot of crowd/band interaction. And Disown rocked the house, obviously. Sindust and Candy Coated Jesus also played, so it was cool to finally hear them live.

Colleen and some of her coworkers joined us later on, so that was fun. And our bartender totally hooked us up. Such a great night of awesome music, good people, and great dancing. I hope tonight will be just as great.

In the meantime I'm eating some Taco Bell (I swear, you can't beat the whole 79 cent bean burrito thing...like, you can pig out for under 3 bucks...way to go fast food!) and chilling online while Colleen does her matinee.

Tomorrow I'll drag my ass home and get ready for a week full of work. Meh. I wish I could just be on vacation permanently, lol.
