Yay! 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!

Was it Doherty? Or Doughty? It sounds like you're describing Mike Doughty, who used to lead one of my favorite '90s bands, Soul Coughing, and now has a solo project called the Mike Doughty band or something. His stuff is sort of spoken-word-esque (though he does sing, too). One of my favorite lines of his is "I gotta stand on the corner and bellow for mush." I think he'd fit well with BNL. I'm glad you had fun!

And, yay, Justin! :)

Hey, just heard on the radio, JC is hosting WNCI's Jingle Ball December 7th. Tickets go on sale November 11th. It's at promowest. I haven't decided if I am up for that or not.

Glad you could come last night. We had a great time too!

and yes, there is always more bacon than the pan can handle.
