The show yesterday was so good. Gus and his band are amazing live. I stayed and talked with him for a good 20 minutes or so. There weren't too many people there, so he wasn't horded by people. He and the band signed the in-store poster and their manager, Larry, was grilling me on how I found out about them, how their advertizing was working, etc. It was a bit on the annoying side, when I'm trying to talk to Gus, and Larry is asking me about how the LA Weekly ads were layed out. I found out Gus is playing by himself on the 14th at Sacred Grounds. I was supposted to go see the band last night at the Hotel Café, but that is a whole 'nother story. Here goes...

For the first time ever in my entire life, I got lost. Yes, the human Thomas Guide got lost in Los Angeles. I was so mad at myself last night, I was about to pull over and fucking go off on anyone. I knew exactly where I was the entire time, but I didn't know where I had to go! It didn't help that I left the address at home, but I still should have been able to get to where I was going. The only good thing that came out of last night was I found out exactly where the El Rey is for Friday and Saturday's show. But still, ugh! I need to start my photoblog this week. I've taken too many good shots not to have them on display. My goal is to have it all up and working in 2 weeks. I also need to start on the site for my pop's band. That's one I'm not looking forward to.

I also woke up with a black eye. How the hell that happened I have no idea. No fights last night that I know of.
