Fuzzy Math support day

__2004-10-10 @ 11:55 p.m._______ So today I worked at the old store down the street. I worked on the instore performance with Badly Drawn Boy aka Damon Gough, and it was absolutely delightful. Not a big fan before the performance but he definitely sparked some interest by the time it was all said and done. He played for about 120 people and then signed cds and posters afterwards for about and hour and a half. He's such a nice english fellow! Although I did overhear him call the beatles a bunch of wankers...the person he was speaking to didn't catch the sarcasm and was like "how dare you! are you a fucking moron- I'm about ta slap ya, ya stupid bitch!" And then he got it after a bit and felt like a dork. Did I mention the guy sat around for an hour and a half signing shit and taking pictures with strangers who thought they knew him? I thought he was so generous for being so great with these fans...and I told him so afterwards, which promptly followed with me asking for an autographed poster. I just wanted to add to my collection of show memorabilia of the bay area- so far I have something from the My Favorite show, Ryan Adams show, and now this. I have to go see this movie Dig this week. It's playing in Berkeley until thursday. Only problem is that I'm so broke until Friday. Quite a dilemma, huh? Prostitution is always the answer...remember that. Then things get better. What else?...oh, I talked to Jane on saturday and talked about old Iowa City people and chatted about how we really have to live in the same city for awile again...just to get to know each other again. I miss her. She said that Heidi's new boyfriend reminds her of me, personality-wise. And then she said that Amy and Anne and everyone else was like "I don't see it." It just made me realize that I'm not sure any of those old friends really know me anymore. I mean, I haven't hung out with any of those people in any kind of regular capacity in like, at least 5 years. I think we all can change quite a bit over 5 years, don't you? And then to top it off, they knew me when I was like 20, 21. It was just weird to hear Jane bring up that situation. I almost would like to hear some of those people's description of me now. I think Jane knows me 'cause I've hung out with her over the past few years and kept in touch with her. I don't know...it's just weird to think about how people would describe you five years removed and have it be of how you were as a 20 year old. << | >>
