So last Thurs I missed Samantha Who to go see Suckers at Glasslands. It was sponsored by Heeb Magazine, and we got free lil bags of goodies. Mine included a CD by Balkan Beat Box. I don't even know what to do with a CD. But Suckers was great! Nick reminded me that I had actually gone to one of their shows when I went to see Real Estate and they played with them and Oxford Collpase at the Studio at Webster Hall a month or two ago. The lead singer and drummer were totally wilin out. Before they played their big Pfork hit song "It Gets Your Body Movin," the lead singer turned to the guitarist and said "pump up the jams motherfucker!" Hottt.
Sat night Nick and I also went to a show at the Shank that was free if you stopped by TopMan on Friday to pick up a free ticket. We saw These Are Powers, Wavves and Crystal Stilts. Unfortunately for These Are Powers, the power (somewhat ironically) went out three times during their set, during their best song too, "Easy Answers." Wavves was rad! I can't wait to see him at Pitchfork. We totally shared a moment when I caught his eye on the way out... and realized he's like 14. Crystal Stilts was alright, sort of disappointing, because the lead singer seemed like he took a few too many ludes. Seriously out of it.
Josh called cos he left his keys and I have to run them down the six flights and take them to him. I guess it's okay though cos I have to take out the recycling.NYC has skipped spring and gone right to summer. It was almost 90 degrees out today, and our office's AC isn't on yet. It's been pretty awful.
Getting in bed to watch the Office and sleep for once!
