Last night my RRBF played an awesome gig, ahem, those are rock terms, not mine, at Sneaky Dee’s for a series called Wavelength. They headlined, the club was packed, the Hylozoists played as well, and it was a veritable cornucopia of Toronto indie rock gods.
Kevin Drew was there, and I’m always amazed that people recognize me as me, in terms of belonging to some extent to my RRBF, but that my face is familiar as well. He gave me a big hug, and said, “Tell him they were awesome. I’m leaving now. Tell them they were great!” Which is very cool coming from the lead singer of one of the most acclaimed indie rock bands around, Broken Social Scene.
There were tons of fun people there, all kinds of friends, and I danced and jumped and whooped and hollered and had a grand old time. I love my new bionic hip. My tummy held court well and I managed to get some sleep. All in all a brilliant kind of day.
