One hell of a weekend...

Current mood: enthralled

So here we go:
Friday: I wanted to go see Jens Lekman** in LA but it was Garretts birthday so a bunch of us took a limo down to Hillcrest and went to Hamburger Mary's. Super fun, drank like 2 bottles of champagne and various mixed drinks, then talked nonsense at Garrett and Iann as I tried to pass out half-clothed in Garrett's bed.
Saturday: Went home in the morning, made eggs with rancid oil and gave Charles and myself some sort of food poisoning. Puked many times that day. Forced myself to feel better and then I did so we went to Garrett's Halloween party and I drank much Chianti. I went as Medusa. I rock.
Sunday: Garth, Garrett, Charles and I went to see MC Chris bitches! He played at the fucking Jumping Turtle of all places. The Ergs and Snmnmnm opened and they were kickass. MC rocked the house and we talked to him a little bit and it was awesome and so much fun. SOOOOO much in fact that....
Monday: Garth, Desi, Charles and I decide to drive to Bakersfield after Garth and Charles got off of work to see it all again. We got there too late to see The Ergs but Snmnmnm were great, they sounded much better than they did down here (which I blame entirely on the shitty Jumping Turtle). MC was awesome of course, but the kids in Bakersfield were all lame for the most part. I couldn't figure out if they just randomly showed up and had no idea who was playing or if they were soooo scene that they just couldn't bear to show excitement. Either way, the energy at the show down here was 5 billion times better. I felt bad for them.

We got home around 330. Hells yeah bitches.


**Go listen to some Jens muthafuckas. A bunch of his rarer stuff is free here. Pocketful of Money is one of the most awesome songs ever. Dig around on the site a little, there are more mp3s elsewhere. He makes me happy.

----Update-----
I was just talking to my friend bas about the show last night and I just felt the need to add this:
(17:02:29) PrimaLux Sum: let me just say...if you ever want to go somewhere that is like 90% white people and 90% teenagers who want really hard to be part of "subcultures" but their only connection to them is fashion, then bakersfield is the place for you
(17:02:39) My friend Bas: hahaha
(17:02:43) PrimaLux Sum: i just had to get that out
