Old friends

Welp. I'm literally sitting in my car--yes, posting a new entry from my phone. G'head and laugh. I did. I just shipped something I sold on eBay from my favorite shipping center. And now I'm about to make my way down to Houston for the show.

As I tend to do, I've gone back and forth with wondering if I should feel bad that I'm still as loco for seeing these guys as I was when I was in my 20's or if I should be okay with it. I mean seriously, remember Jimmy Fallon on Fever Pitch when his girlfriend sees him on telly at the Red Sox spring training with all the other fans? The dude is completely unintelligible. At one point he puts his face right in front of the camera and tries to get something out about how excited he is to be there but it ends up coming out as complete gibberish. So, I wouldn't say I LOOK like that but that's absolutely how I feel inside.

It's gonna be a great, great show. I'll be sure to post something later about the experience!

One thing I will say on the front end is that to watch them is like--have you seen those car decals that say something like, "I'd rather be fishin'?" I'm sure you have. I could easily imagine the band feels that way about what they do so strongly that they'd have the phrase "I'd rather be gigging," tattooed on 'em. It's so cool to watch.

All right catch y'all on the flip flop!
