Current music:

yeah yeah yeahs

I took a break from taking care of the mouseling on Friday to go with my sister to the Sidebar. It's a very small space and I know the members of one of the bands, Dry Season. They recruited a ton of friends to come out and see the show, so I ended up knowing practically half the crowd. Yang designed the flyer for the lineup (see here) which turned out amazing.

The thing about the Sidebar is that every time I go there (not that it's often), I seem to get unplannedly, incredibly drunk. The irony is, the music might actually be experienced better drunk. It's a lot of experimental, instrumental music that very much begs a mellow and hazy state of mind.

Prior to leaving, I took a few pictures of my sister and her friends (though I made a couple cameos myself)

The Sidebar

Yang actually posed for some of the pictures, which was a huge shock

Yang bought me a shot, too. In theory this was a nice thing to do, but I had already had two glasses of wine and a glass of cider, the shot was enough to put me well past "comfortably drunk"

People tend to like to take their shoes off and play barefoot on this stage. I have witnessed this more than once

Loved the girl. I think she was wearing all Anthropologie pieces. There was also a very hot guy in the band, but his face is obscured in all the pictures. Anyway, this band was Zanny the Nanny(?). They were phenomenal, very experimental (you can see them leaning over their unusual instruments)
