mutha' fuckin'
Nov. 18th, 2003 07:58 pmsunday night was the Xiu Xiu show as i mentioned before...the opening band was called El Guapo...they were not good...they started off being not bad, just not good...but what was tepid and slightly reminiscent of post-punk funk evolved into some much closer to shitty rave music by the end of the set and the last few songs were just downright awful...but then Xiu Xiu...it wasn't the whole band, just Jamie Stewart (well, i guess now he's the only full-on member anyway...) much like on the Fag Patrol cd...just him singing and playing guitar or harmonium...of course, it would have been even better with the whole band, but the show was still very good...though the quietness did lend to the typical problems for quiet bands when playing the Hi-Tone...but being close to the stage makes it easier to ignore the assholes by the bar...i got some stuff at the merch table: Xiu Xiu: Fag Patrol, The Jim Yoshi Pile Up & Xiu Xiu's Insound tour ep, and this comp called Translation Music 3...of course there's a Xiu Xiu song on it...though there's also a Dropscience song...(ah, the band we played our first show with and took to a strip club afterwards and our friend bought the drummer a lap dance for his birthday...memories...) i also got a shirt...i almost didn't because all they had were this size that's somewhere between a medium and a small...but one of the shirts said on it:
XIU
MUTHA'
FUCKIN'
XIU
so i thought if i'm going to wear a shirt that's way too tight and shows off all my fat, that's the one...hrm...not too much went on yesterday...nothing really, in fact...i did get Lolita on dvd from Jason...at work tonight we got our evaluations from last month...i had perfect attendance so i'm getting an extra 10 percent for those hours that i worked that month on this week's paycheck...bitchin'...and on my call stats i got like 99.7% or something and my supervisor said the calls she monitored were very good or something...so i guess that's cool...well...i seem to be finished here...
p.s.
i forgot to mention in my last post that at the second Neil Hamburger show, i was the recipient of a piece of candy thrown for my cooperation in laughing...i need to find some way to mount it to my wall...
