blood sugar level goes up
So I'll write a bit about the concert and such.
I estimated that I'd seen Jump, Little Children about five times when I lived in North Carolina. All the times I'd seen them shared a number of common characteristics. The crowd was large, mostly female, and seemed to know every single song they played by heart. Last night none of these things were the case. I actually rather liked the venue (the Zephyr Club) - it seemed modern and airy, or at least recently renovated, and the band liked it as well. The sound was a bit questionable, but when is it not?
Anyway it was a good time. They rocked out, even with the mellow numbers on their latest album, but especially with the ones off Magazine and before. And of course there were a couple of Irish numbers - Matt wore a t-shirt that said "I'm not Irish but I play one on TV." I was happy that despite not knowing the songs, people weren't afraid to dance. (Well, MOST PEOPLE anyway.) And they played "Cathedrals" to a mostly indifferent crowd - besides our table, naturally. It was all good, except for the getting up at 7 the next morning...

Happy St. Patrick's Day, by the way. We're going to be playing a few tunes tonight, in honor of the day, but since SLC can't really celebrate a day that promotes drunkeness on Sunday (it's the "Lord's Day" in Mormonland) we're going to celebrate calmly with the few that will be in attendance tonight, and I'll be wearing my Paul Frank "I'm not really Irish...I just play one on TV" (a present from Noula at N.Tassios) t-shirt so I don't get pinched.
