So I haven't posted in a while, and I know this is going to seem really contradictory since I'm posting this at 5 am and it's about actually getting sleep, but melatonin is possibly the greatest thing ever, between actually ending mental hyperactivity, and allowing me to go to sleep. Not to mention the crazy vivid lucid dream I've had, it seriously makes going to sleep exciting and adventuresome, almost as if each night's sleep was a long trip. It's quite fantastic, it's been working 100% of the time, some 7/7 as of now =D. Anyways, besides this, no new news in Gainesville, besides, repostering my room with all new posters, the old ones became annoying and boring. School starting doesn't bring much exciting news.
I went to the Dresden Dolls show in Tampa this past week, and it was quite phenomenal. Amanda Palmer played a few pieces from her solo album in addition to the majority of the favorites from your classic Dresden Dolls selection, including Girl Anachronism early on and a crowd favorite, Coin-Operated Boy. Brian also had a spectacular drum solo ending in broken drumsticks and frightening facial expressions, overall a great show. After the show, my friend Torie and I were able to sneak a peek into the green room (with the duo's randomly scattered clothing and alcohol thrown about) when wandering the streets of Downtown Tampa near the backside of the venue, as well as later meet Brian and Amanda, I got my belt signed (and Brian wrote a note on it's entirety).
The next shows planned for me include Girl Talk, Band of Horses in February, and Built to Spill as of now, and as for current music I'm listening to, Sons & Daughters and The Velvet Underground, I never realized how great the song The Murder Mystery is when you separate the multiple voices for additional excitement and glee. By the way, I can't wait to see Jack Kevorkian either!
