So last night was Hot Water Music, and it was pretty fucking intense.
I showed up about halfway through the Lawrence Arms... which was pretty standard. They played a pretty decent mix of new stuff and old stuff; most of the kids were really into the Oh Calcutta! songs, which was expected I guess. Brendan made some jokes about growing a beard for the show and wearing flannel.
Hot Water Music was really fucking awesome. They opened with A Flight and a Crash and the place just went ape-shit. It was a pretty good crowd, no real assholes, everyone was really into grabbing each-other and screaming and stuff. I guess some guy tried to fight one of the security guards up front, during Choked and Separated, the instrumental part and HWM pretty much stopped and said something along the lines of "we haven't played in 3 years and we're not about to play for fights".
Over-all really fun show. Got to see the sights of Sayreville. Left with a souvenir from a crowd surfer.
Pretty jealous of all you kids out there getting a first hand look at el mundo. Keep it real.
