when I brought this album's announcement up to my aunt, who is also a fan specifically of Garfunkel, she pointed out the background of the cover for 'Time After Time' was the same as for 'Fate for Breakfast', which I like
the rest of this is going to be on the Me First and the Gimme Gimmes performance, all notes made as it was going; (brackets being edits afterwards, curly brackets being options that i'm not sure which it is, and square brackets being editing notes to myself)
now, i do not look punk, my though of what to wear were my only pair of ripper pants, sneakers and a buttoned shirt. two of them i did go with, but subbed out the buttoned shirt for a Knowledge Demon one.
and before halloween i might have passed, but i shaved and had a severe haircut, from reaching the bottom of my nose cut back to my eyebrows (afterwards; there were multiple guys with thr same haircut, i guess it's an attitude thing)
figured it wouldnt start at 7, that doesn't seem very "punk rock" [editing note; change that to like purple and bold] but it was 9:30. generally that'd be fine, but i don't know how long they'll go, and i have work at 5 the next morning, so i'm nervous
also kinda nervous in general, and about going to a pub by myself middlingly far from home, i try to keep my head down normally, so asking about shit worries me
bought my first drink and stood back a bit from the bar to drink it, and had a couple of people ask if i was in line, one of which was the guitarist of the first band. waited for the ticket checking to start
the first act asked if there were any Mormons there. the song after that was pretty good, but i don't remember the band (St Judes). loved the {bass player, other guitarist}, who did the full ball jump, the one where you bring your knees up as much ad you can, and turned and played at the drummer and stuff. pretty good
the second band, Dwarves, was b much louder and had a guy in a balaclava aNd no shirt in the audience. and the singer went over and posed midsobg for a lady's camera. Salt Lake City was a highlight.
it's occurred to me that i don't know what any of MFatGG' look like, so the people setting up the guitars and cables might be roadies, or might be them
one of the songs while setting g up sounded like a ska or punk cover of 99 Luftballons. i love that song. what i don't love is the English lyrics, which is what they used
i think the lead singer was at the bar next to me filling his water bottle, but i'm not good with faces sometimes
they were roadies, and the water bottle guy i think was a guitarist
the biggest mosh was for fucken On the Road Again
there was a lady in an admiral coat, and a guy sitting at the back with curly hair down to his elbows, and a jacket with patches, and i think he looked great
