rue-madame's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- subterfuge No thanks to any of my Yale readers, I saw The Shins last night. It was actually quite easy to sneak into the show, and I won�t divulge my secret because if there are good bands next year, I intend to do it again. As usual the band was really good. Even though they were playing on a stage, outside, in front of obnoxious drunk Ivy League kids, the sound wasn�t too terrible and they put on a happy show. Standing on my tiny mound, I was able to watch the parade of Yale students walk past and I have a few observations: 1. The ubiquitous flipflop The girl at the Shins� merch table was really friendly. She suggested I buy a single that also contained a video but I opted instead for a t-shirt since my Shins one is old and has holes in it. I always buy at least one thing at the merch table since that money goes directly into the bands� pocket. We talked for a while, and she told us that the night before, they�d been in NY, hanging out with David Cross. She also told us to check out The Brunettes, the band that�s been opening for The Shins on most of the tour. Anyway, today I have to finish one project (rather challenging as I�ve lost the use of my left thumb for some bizarre reason,) clean my desk, load Quicken and start organizing my 2004 receipts. I filed an extension, but want to file my taxes as early as possible so I know what the damage is. 9:38 a.m. - 2005-04-27 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
