two things.
one: i had a dream about modest mouse last week regarding the whole pearl
jam thing. i dreamt i was walking to class and one of the indiana
university buses passed by me with a painted advertisement on its side
saying "pearl jam/modest mouse concert this weekend". i was sad.
two: i saw chan marshall last weekend in murfreesboro tennessee and while
chan was spectacular, she only played songs from the covers album save two
or three, it was just her and guitar or piano and half the crowd was there
to drink beer or play pool and we could hardly hear her. one cool part
though, we were all sitting on the floor in front of the stage (those who
cared that is) and she came down off the stage and stood right in front of
us. we had to scoot back to make room for her mic stand. that made up for
all the loud assholes in the back of the room.
thing to learn from this: don't go see cat power in a bar.
