Just got back from seeing the Pixies in the local beer hall. It was both the biggest venue I’ve ever been to and the most expensive one (and I’ve been to quite a few concerts), but it was worth it to see the Pixies. I didn’t have extremely high expectations but the sound was decent and they played everything I really wanted to hear, so no complaints here. Well, except for the crowd… gah. Pushy, lacking any concert etiquette and way too many people taking photos with their mobile phones. Hint: a concert is not the best place to a) take photos, or b) have meetings.
With that out of the way: I wore my monkey shirt. It’s funny how many reactions that shirt gets. When I bought it I had no idea about the whole Paul Frank / Julius the monkey ‘thing’. I still don’t really, but at least I recognize the name and designs now. I just like having a monkey on my shirt. Now there’s a store downtown that specializes in monkey clothing and all sorts of odd Japanese import stuff. Weird.
