9:30 Love

So I just saw G. Love & Special Sauce in a 2 night stand at the 9:30 Club downtown. Tristan Prettyman and Slightly Stoopid opened with acoustic sets. Tristan was solid and looking hot as usual. I talked to her and told her how awesome her music is. Her performance with G both nights were a nice touch. Slightly Stoopid's performance was pretty cool both nights with their mixing of reggae, ska, and acoustic rock blues tunes.

Night one was a very upbeat show and had a lot of crowd favorites along with tunes from the new album. It was rather unfortunate the crowd wasn't as attentive and quite talkative during the slower blues jams. I did enjoy some I-76 and the Rock & Roll (Shout Outs Back to the Rappers) as a tribute to the ODB.

The 2nd night would have to be my favorite though because he kicked it back to older jams along with throwing in some new tunes. The crowd was great and smaller, thus making the performance a lot more intimate. My favorite tunes of the evening were the Fishing Song, Shooting Hoops, and Parasite. I was a bit disappointed with the Pussy Song not getting played, but overall I have to say this was one of the best 2 night runs I've been to at the club.

On another music note the Nirvana Box Set came out today which I'm stoked about picking up.

Turkey day is right around the corner and I'm heading down to good ole BC for some good homecooking that I have been longing for many months. It's going to be great being able to eat all the turkey, mashed potatos, homemade rolls, green beans, mac & cheese throughout the day. I will definitely be taking the traditional nap while watching football.

On another note, I'm glad to see that somebody is reading this and Jill was kind enough to post a comment, though she did have to create a Blog herself. Apparently, I had the comments part only available for people who are registered bloggers. I changed the setting, so feel free to comment the shit out of it.

Love myself better than you,
Knowing it's wrong but what should I do
