Through the Dark

Last time I saw KT Tunstall in concert was on November 20th 2004 in St. Andrews with Jamie and Dawn. It's a really great talent who can keep you coming back for more from their live shows, and KT is one of them.


So Tuesday night, I trekked once more into the city to meet up with Matt to go see the bonnie, Fifer perform at the Mercury Lounge. This time, since I knew all the music, she was even better. I had this great outline of what I was going to say to KT if I saw her before the show (like I saw Scientist Keith) but alas, she did not emerge- probably busy primping for the show since it was being filmed.

After the show, Matt and I hit up the Darkroom for a(nother) Stella. Apparently the week before Lindsay Lohan and Kate Moss were there and badass Lohan graffitied the bathroom wall- so we went hunting. Too bad Lindsay's toilet was in the closed off section of the bar...maybe they do tours during the day.

Music Slut

Thursday night, I met Matt in the city for a fun filled night out on the town.

We started off at Art Gotham gallery in Chelsea for the opening of the artist Stanley Philoche. The pictures on his site really don't do his work justice, they were fantastic in person. We chatted with the artist a bit (he reminded me of Basquiat) and after his prompting, started to touch his paintings, feeling their smoothness and imperfections. It was a great experience, I am glad I went...and there was free wine.

The gallery was small so after a wee bit we hopped in my car and drove to the LES to an openbar.com event at Summer's Restaurant. We should have figured that only an hour into a 3 hour event all the booze would already be gone. We got a glass of wine anyway then went a couple of doors down to a bar that had a happy hour going on. Laura met us there and after some faffing about, we ended up at the Clinton Street Bakery for a delectable meal.

I could barely walk when we got out of the restaurant, so I drove us to Bowery for the night's main event, the We Are Scientists concert, instead of walking.

The concert was awesome, Matt and I felt like the oldest ones there, but it was awesome. The above is a flickr shot from mediaeater we got into. See that big kid in front of me? During the last song, him and some other idiots started moshing into me, so I totally elbowed him in the stomach and called him a dickweed. And I believe what Matt is staring at there are the two people who were making out up against the stage. If this picture was taken two seconds earlier, that totally would have been me full out gaping at them. For our review of the show and more pictures, make sure to check out The Music Slut.

The Reason Why I Never Dated in High School

Though I did kiss the one on the right for giving me a Valentine in Spanish class. It was scandalous.

This is what one does when they are jobless and bored. They look up old people from high school, on sites like Myspace and Friendster, and make fun of them. It's great. Check out the one on the left's guido gold chain and seventies style shirt all open like it's 1974- I love it.
