band aid

friday night was probably in the top 4 best nights of my life. we got very very front row for my morning jacket and i teared up probably at least three times. those shows are such an experience. during the show i kept on thinking of myself as an mmj "band aid" like from the movie almost famous, ya know? when kate hudson says, "we are not groupies. groupies sleep with rockstars because they want to be near someone famous. we are here because of the music, we inspire the music. we are band aids." i imagined myself as a 2011 penny lane. haha. is that so lame? i don't really care if it is. i can't wait to see them next. in the words of jim james, "it's just the way that he sings. not the words that he says, or the band. i'm in love with this soul, it's a meaning that i understand." their new album, circuital, comes out may 31st so everyone remember to buy it!


              

i loved everyone we went down there with, too. we had such a good crew. the best times were when everyone actually found each other and we got to enjoy the show in our little area and dance and play in the sand. ah i want to go back. it went by so fast.

but now it's back to work for a while. it's really weird knowing i'm not getting a few month summer vacation for the first time in my life. but i have accrued quite a few days off and i believe another beach trip is in the works in the coming weeks. i wish i was flying out to l.a. to visit my bffaa, dani collins, while she's doing amazing interior design internship things. but my bank account will not allow it. so the southeast will have to do for now.
