lauralhI re-read To Say Nothing of the Dog again this weekend. The paradox inherent bothers me more and more, each time I read it. Has anyone else read it? Connie Willis is fantastic, unfortunately her works require so much research that she's only written like four novels. And lots of short stories, granted.
That was about it. Saturday I did Naked Sushi with some peeps at Bonzai, and attempted to help a friend score by inviting the remainder to my place, but it didn't quite work so well. Still had a good time; kicked out the visitors at 6am. And then, you know, didn't wake up till 4pm. Watched Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels on IFC, then barely had enough time to get ready to go to the Crocodile and eat dinner.
Infomatik was great but they played a supershort set, since they had started late. But they had CDs at last, yay. Reg got one and the keyboard player recognized him from Sid's show at the Sunset. Woo, we are rockstar groupie-matics for suze. He also got the Kuma CD, sight unseen, just b/c he liked the buttons.
I had no idea what to expect with Kuma, but it reminded me of why I dislike seeing goth acts live. They were good, don't get me wrong, they rocked out, but they took themselves so seriously I couldn't stop laughing. Well, anyway, I copied the CD too, there was some serious raw emotion that made me totally want to make out.
IMA Robot was like, off the hook and shit. Lead singer clearly high or something, kept tripping over shit. I found he had a slight resemblence to Stuart Townsend, but not in the handsome way. and yes, steve perry haircut. But great show. Must remember to acquire album.
Ah yeah.
