lauralh | and another

had a bit of a headache at work yesterday, but copious amounts of water and advil killed it good. yay. when I got home I had a salad, baby spinach+olive oil+balsamic vinager, and grown-up grilled cheese. That is leftover crepes with expensive local farmer's cheese. Mmm. Then I finished dying my hair, and showered, and then we went to the Showbox. Hanging out there and in the Green Room made me really feel like I was back in 2002, and I was lacking only

hotcrab to laugh at the hipsters with me.

We got there in time to hear Morning After Girl's last two songs, and they creeped me out. They looked and sounded kind of like BRMC did back then. But then their last song was the three guys singing in harmony, and it was more like The Turtles or something. And then Elefant, with their lead singer lookin' like Jared Leto crossed with Donovan, played some rockin' numbers. Very nice. I was nonplussed when one of BRMC's guys came out in stage with hair and outfit like early Johnny Cash, and he proceeded to sing songs off the newest album. In fact I fled to the Green Room till the rest of the band came out to rock out. I had two cape cods and felt fine. We got home before midnight, and I slept strangely, with dreams of Natalie Portman/V and BRMC mixed together.
