Just RMMFFO. Hard. BTW, still no Rhino an Lil. :(

And the Diamond Ballroom kicks ***. **** all you haters. Everytime I see the show there, I am reminded that I will happily go trailer park to experience some good acoustics.

The guy at the Faint's merch table was drooling all over my Flaming Lips Alley shirt. After he confirmed to me that he's not local and actually travels with the Faint, I pulled the shirt off and gave it to him. I'll get a new one tomorrow, and I swear I made his week. He was all wide eyed and like, "is that a real street?"

Was the other band any good?

They were... ...interesting. Three girls, three guys. The three girls all tapdanced on a plywood box that was miked (and freaking loud). One of the girls ONLY danced. No singing. One of the girls mostly sang, some dancing too. One of the girls played bass, sang... ...and tapdanced.

They were sort of like the Pixies and Starlight Mints, crossed with Lord of the Dance. Weird. But everybody loved them.

I came in a bit late on Stardeath's set, but they get better everytime I see them.

The tapdancy band was called Tilly and the Wall (http://www.tillyandthewall.com/tatw/index.html), BTW.

By the way, a lot of people describe others by saying "he'd give you the shirt off his back." For most people that's probably a load of crap, but not yours truly.

Plus, I'm modest, to boot. Obviously, I'm better than most people.

D00d. Please tell us you had another shirt on under the one you gave away.

Yeah, I was rocking the short sleeve over longsleeve look, and only gave him the short sleeved shirt. Much to everyone's relief.

Never been a big fan of The Faint. I don't really get it.
