Driving Driving Driving Eating Driving Dancing Driving Driving...

so last night was the streetlight manifesto concert i've been waiting for, for a long time.

I left blackburn and drove to southern illinois to take some stuff back and pick alecia up - 2hrs

then left so. ill, towards st. louis. We went to the spaghetti factory to eat - 1.75hrs.

Made our way to the venue. we got lost, was offered some drugs, i think, then found it.

listened to first band The Epic Mayham. They were good and ska.

Listened to second band. Dan Potthast (sp?). He had his acoustic guitar and is in MU330. He played some MU330 and his own songs. he was funny and good. I got caught video recording him and they made me leave...


then i had to put my camera in my car.


and go back in.

so then ZOX played. They were interesting. Had a violinist who was good. Did some interesting things during some songs too.

finally streetlight manifesto played. they were great. itgot realyl crowded, i almost lost my glasses twice but i caught them. They played good songs including a nofx cover (linoleum) and a bandits of the acoustic revolution song (its a wonderful life). They were really fun, we were right up front.

I bought a bandits of the acoustic revolution shirt and alecia bought two streetlight shirts.

we left, drove for 2 hours towards sesser where alecia lives and stopped a few times for gas/ prospects of getting slushies but not getting anything because they didnt have the right kind/getting energy drink -2hrs

then i got to alecias and dropped her off there and headed back to blackburn. i ended up stopping at a shell station in nashville that blurted something out at me really loud that i didnt understand about the gas and check card or something so i put the pump back in the holder and left... i ended up at the same gas station i went to earlier in the night and didnt buy anything. I was awake ok until 30 miles til blackburn where i began feeling really sleepy... i made it at around 4:45 and slept -2hrs.

then i woke up the next morning at 8 for work.
