yo yo!
This morning I made myself an iced coffee and it was delicious!! But then I went & disgraced cheese lovers of the world and FORGOT to put the tasty cheddar in my mushroom & spinach scramble. What was I thinking?!?!?I'm totally pumped up this morning because within 48 hours we're hitting the road for COACHELLA!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I'm especially psyched to see The Cure, Sahara Hotnights, Trail of the Dead, The Rapture, Le Tigre, Basement Jaxx, Cursive, !!!, Phantom Planet, Erase Errata, Flaming Lips, AIR, THE PIXIES!!!!!!!, StellaStarr* (even though we're seeing them tonite!), Black Keys, Electric Six, Bright Eyes, Pretty Girls Make Graves, I could go on!!! There's SOOOO many KICK ASS bands playing!! GAAAAAWWWWD!!!!
SO ya, I'm freaking out! :) I'm excited for the roadtrip too. We're hoppin in the car with Jem & Tania on Friday for a little roadtrip mayhem - WOOHOO!!!!! I-5 WATCH OUT! And then all weekend we're camping at Cammy's (who you may recall as the hotty pinkalicious in my recent beerfest album) Mom's place, which is apparently really close by. I'm psyched on that to have a safe place for our stuff, and toilets/showers, etc. And they all know how to have a good time, so it's going to be pretty fuN!!
The whole experience is going to be awesome. I'm not sure that I've even BEEN in the desert down there that far either... but holy 100° desert, here we come! I am already looking forward to drinking LOTS OF WATER!!
Bands and beer all day and hanging with awesome friends - this is truly my heaven!!

Speaking of bands, I just posted a random photo album, mostly from a few shows I snapped pics at over the last month or so. None of the photos ever come out that spectacular, as it's always dark & such... but it's cool to have the memory of that show... it brings me back.
Tracey + The Plastics are great, and there's a few photos of her here. We didn't really dig any of their openers, but Tracey was awesome. She does this thing where she's got these homemade video's playing behind her, and she interacts with these characters that are really her (alter egos of herself?) And it's totally entertaining. She has an awesome voice, too. I really enjoyed her show a ton. If I ever get around to it, I have some video from that show, too.
And how bout this crazy huge spider!? I get these in my house every once and awhile and their huge. Stay tuned for the Spider Showdown video I'll be posting eventually. It's awesome.
Tonite: StellaStarr* with The Evening and The Killers! woohoo!! I've been waiting for this show for a long time, and am psyched on seeing all 3!
