Unfortunately, I will be laying low this weekend to keep money in my pocket for LCD Soundsystem in NYC Monday night, Opening Day on Friday, and a game on Sunday.

Nice.

I cannot fucking wait for next weekend. I have to get my boozetime in while I can...just found out that Mrs Fixer is knocked up. She just went off the pill a few weeks ago...my seed must be potent.

Wow - that's awesome! Congrats - it's the best! (well not the next 9 months, but after that...)

You'll still be able to do plenty of boozing. And you have to drink for 2 now.

The Fixer

Thanks fellas. Ideally this would have happened six months from now as I feel like I've got a lot going on right now. I'm excited and scared to death.

Johnny, I like your idea of drinking for two. Having a designated driver for phils games will be nice

Assuming that means no Felice Bros for you next week. Gotta catch them sometime, dude. They are great.

I will have to check them out. have you guys heard of Benji Hughes? Just downloaded his album and I'm digging it. Pretty sure it's been out for a while, so I'm probably late to the party. I used to love checking out new bands...I don't search for new music much anymore. Probably just another sign that my ass is getting old.

Felice Brothers are great. Kind of that folk/rock sound is the best I can describe it. Awesome stuff, their shows are incredible, they have an absolute blast on stage.

Never heard of Benji Hughes, not a bad song though, will have to check more of his stuff.

I think he freelances and contributes to a number of places.

Ah. Actually was looking for this on the R5 website because my girlfriend was telling of some dude playing that church and I told her F that we should go see these dudes. I just figured I missed it. Going to have to look into this now....It's the same day as my half-ass Phils tix for Wednesday...Maybe I'll just make a day of it. Thanks for the heads-up, Cliff.

By chance, are you a fan of Old Crow? Those dudes are sweet.

Good stuff. It's next wednesday and tickets are not bad at all, only $24. Highly recommended. Here is the link to the tickets. Not the most "polished" band in the world but a great great time.

I like them, don't know all of their stuff but everything I have heard is great.

Hehe - yeah. I actually only made her drive maybe 4 or 5 times, if that. The guilt/sympathy can be overwhelming. (especially if it's 100 degrees for 2 months straight)

It is definitely exciting & scary. Get ready for a wild ride!

How was the show last night? Was thinking about going last minute but the girl wasn't up for it and I didn't feel like going solo.

It really was awesome. I actually went solo, because my lady chose QOTSA tonight instead and couldn't do 2 straight nights. I met some people from on here there (well none of the Philly sports freaks, but others). I like the album too, and the live performances blew the studio peformances away. Having Mike there shredding away every song didn't hurt too much either. Really glad I went. Be sure to check them out on the TV show at least.

Johnny Abruzzo

We are heading towards quite the concert season: Tres Mts, QOTSA, TV on the Radio, Eddie (hopefully), U2, hopefully Death Cab & Foo Fighters .

Thats cool. Kind of wish I went but have a lot coming up. Glad it was a good time, I wasn't a huge fan of the few songs Ihave listened to. Will have to check that out for sure though.

I like the album, which is a bonus, but I could listen to Barney songs for 2 hours if Mike is shredding on stage left.

Hope everything is going well with you Cliffy.

haha, that is very true and I haven't heard the whole album either.

Thanks, man. Been a rough month or so. I think most people in this thread can guess from a few of my posts, but we lost my old man pretty suddenly. Hasn't been fun but we are getting through it. Baseball season will be a welcome distraction, even though he was as big of a Yanks fan as me.
