What was I thinking, drinking like that the night before a long bus trip? To quote Discharge: Why.

The show went well, thanks for asking. We played for a room full of our friends, and, in my case, my partents, which — if I can be treacly — is heartwarming. Long-lost friends emerged: Lara Nahas, Debbie Lee, Matt "Dead Nation/ xUPRISEx" Molnar. At least one high-school-era ex-girlfriend showed up, and let me take this opportunity to apologize: when I was introduced to you and started laughing, I was laughing at the absurdity of seeing you at the show after easily ten years and not laughing at you. Sorry about that.
