I heart Giant Drag & I like The Like
Lastnight Ali & I hit the Giant Drag/The Like show at Cafe du Nord & it was sooo good!! I love Annie from Giant Drag. She's quirky and says stuff you don't expect to come out of her because she's somewhat innocent looking. They were FANTASTIC live. Eric showed up just in time for The Like, and it was good to see him.The Like was great, too... I didn't realize they're all under 21! The lead singer looks older though, mostly due to her horrible 70's hairdo. And although her voice is amazing (think Bjork meets the Sundays), her trailer trash outfit was gastly. We're talking not even campy trailer trash, just plain out *mistake*. hahaa. Anyway, they were good! And turns out the bass player in The Like is actually Annie from Giant Drag's little sister! awww yaaa family of rocking girls!
After The Like's set ended we stayed and had another drink just to enjoy the fact that he finally made it out. Ted was supposed to show up too, but he was MIA. It was great to be out of the house & hangin w/ Ali again. She went to 2 shows w/o me this week (gasp!) and so it was important that are "duo of spunk & energy" (as Eric put it) was reunited! GO GO SHOW HO PROS!
Quote of the night was when Ali commented on how much blogging I've done recently. She called it a Post-a-Palooza! haha! BTW - Shout out to Miss Ali who is now writing for SF's Done Waiting Foghorn! Awesome!
Unfortunately my battery died about 5 photos into the show, but I was able to sneak 2 more shots out of it! (Mental note: Put "extra camera battery" on my Christmas wishlist)

Now I'm off to enjoy some tasty Burmese @ Burma Superstar w/ my friend Kristin! yay!
