    Lying sideways atop crumpled sheets and no covers he decides to dream. Dream up a new self. For himself.

    Flea sat behind me during the opening set of the Mars Volta back in October.

    EDIT: I didn't believe my cousin when he told me it was him until he got up.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    i saw all of wilco at o'hare airport in chicago. i was dropping my gf off for her flight and stopped talking mid-sentence. she was like "what's the matter?" i was like "i think that's jeff tweedy buying coffee over there. it was. if he saw me starting he probably thought i was a potential sociopath. i saw the whole band on my way back down but they were waiting on their baggage with their families and stuff so i didnt say anything cos it didnt seem appropriate.

    i met ben harper and the innocent criminals twice.

    saw mike talking to fans outside the detroit show last spring.

    and met a few members of snow patrol post-show last fall.
