ilex_cassineWent to see the Mountain Goats tonight. I inexplicably like him a whole lot. Usually not my genre, but well, sometimes I guess it doesn't matter. He played a song based on Mario Brothers, so eh, what the heck. Only two bad lyrical faux pas, numeration and the use of the "like a child" simile. At least he didn't use a season theme or metaphor, that's just too big of a lyrical sin.
It was a good show, in spite of being at the very uncomfortable Cats Cradle (so glad its smoke free now, whoowee, but why are venues always so damn uncomfortable? my feet and back are killing me). I recommend going to see him if you get a chance. Merci buckets to Mr. Pardue for the tics.
And on the way back home we saw a large, bright shooting star. Super cool. I can't recollect ever seeing one before.
