Well, first off, i should say, the concert last night was pretty amusing to say the least...
the opening band- Vega4 are pretty amazing, totally check out their music, since i am pretty sure you have never ever heard of them before.... vega4.com or they have a myspace page too. theyre great live... even on the verge of being as amusing as matt nathanson... and that is an amazing compliment i'll have you know. because matt cannot be topped in terms of live music.... anyway, they were awesome. then augustana. all they did was play music. very few words were said other than thank you very much. boooring! all of their hair looked as if it had not been washed in a month and then slept on and in need of a trim... or something. oh, and the lead singer sings with his eyes closed and looks like a rat- no joke- when he sings. funny. but, to be fair, the music was good and its cool how the one guy can play guitar and harmonica at the same time and also piano and sing at the same time. oh and afterwards, marina and i got our tickets autographed by the lead singer and drummer of vega4. cool i guess? now i have them and 2 of the guys from graham colton band autographs.... i find autographs to be kind of silly... all it is is someone's name sharpie-d on some paper or what not, but whatever, i have them. i guess its cool to see how differently they all sign their names and such.... anyway, overall, good show.

so today i got quite a bit of my painting done. i like it. all it is is a bunch of 1" squares on a canvas in various shades of green, blue, brown and eventually purples too. i like painting.

i played donkey konga.... on gamecube... with the bongo controllers.... with my feet today against my sister and still won. haha. that has to be soooo funny to see, but its funny and fun to play like that.... HAHA.

oh ok, so augustana mentioned that their song, wasteland was written either in or about chicago... i think about.... but ummmm, here are the lyrics... not so happy if you ask me....
"now I'm sitting on a plane,/ lonely flight back to LA.../don't come back with me/so I'll drink myself to sleep,/ cut my skin until I bleed/hold my breath all the night/hear the sound,/ she was naked on the ground,/ till I whispered in her ear.../come away,/ watch the dawn break through the day,/till the sun,/ is underneath.../cause it's 5 o'clock,/ the hour stops the sunlight,/the buildings shade/ the masquerade/ and kill time,/here we're nothin more than fools and whores and sad highs,/through the summer sand,/ we're living in a wasteland"

"you fit me/perfectly/so in the chorus i'll sing/what it's like to be/going out and laughing at nothing.... calling in sick so we can lay there/you and me/yes you and me/come to europe, you can see where i come from... i really like you... its a good thing we both know that/thats a good thing/you and me/perfectly/fit the chorus/so i'll sing/what it's like to be....you and me, yes you and me"
You and Me::Vega4
