More bacon than the pan can handle.
Oct. 30th, 2006 11:44 pmYay! I had a great time tonight -- met two LJers for dinner (Chris and Vicki!), then we all headed out to a Barenaked Ladies concert.
!!!
Barenaked Ladies! Oh my God! I never would have guessed I'd go to one of their concerts! And I had a good time! And it was fun! They'll never replace NSync in my heart, but I'd probably go see them again. Yay!
The opening band, a guy by the name of Mike Doherty, was musically good, but OMG, the dude has no idea what "repetitive" means. Highlight of the Doherty set -- the opening of Guns -N- Roses' "Paradise City" segued into Kenny Rogers' "The Gambler." Much with the hilarity, and a good time was had by all. Second highlight of the night: various vocal samples played via electronic keyboard, one of which was a woman saying, "More bacon than the pan can handle." If Mr. Doherty's CD had been priced in the 8.00-10.00 range, I'd have purchased one. Unfortunately, he wanted 15.00. I just couldn't go there. Maybe I'll find a copy at Halfprice Books! It could happen.
It's 12:17 and I need to get to bed because I'm a MORON and didn't take tomorrow off!! Waaah! Gotta go to work in the morning!
In other news, I do believe I'm going to see La Timberlake when he breezes through in February. Yeah, baby!

Date: 2006-10-31 01:07 am (UTC)Yep, you're right! I only glanced at his CD very briefly (obviousy, I suppose ;-)), so I got the spelling wrong. But yes! I Googled him after I saw your comment, and that's the guy! I remember "Circles" by SC, I remember liking that one quite a bit. I also discovered that they're behind "Sugar Free Jazz", which I nabbed off of one of my Halfprice CDs. Now, if I'd known all this yesterday, I might have sprung for the CD!

I had a *ton* of fun. I really wouldn't mind seeing BNL again. Vicki and Chris were also a lot of fun too! I wouldn't mind seeing them again, either. :-)

Also, JC has *waaaaay* more bacon than the pan can handle, if those red sparkly pants can be believed. ;-)
