Ahh, there's nothing like a night of peace and quiet.
And what could be more peaceful, or quieter, than a night at an NBA game?
The one thing I learned at last night's fierce Boston Celtics-New Jersey Nets tilt: Tom Gugliotta still plays in the NBA, and he plays for the Boston Celtics. Also, I am not sure what is worse, the sound of Thunderstix during something important and tense like the World Series, or the sound of Thunderstix during an absolutely meaningless game between two mediocre teams at a half-empty arena in February.
Tonight, went to the Arcade Fire show. What was that? Oh my bad - I went to the The Arcade Fire show.
The following was uttered either between sets or after the show, but never by me:
"I honestly feel bad for big tobacco."
"Yeah totally. The first time I heard it, I thought it really, really sucked!"
"He wasn't really playing 3/4 of the time, the sound was looped or he was playing along to a tape. And he got the nine levels of magic in Dungeons & Dragons wrong."
Anyhow, a fun and totally unpretentious time was had by all, especially the people jumping up and down on my right foot. Actually, it wasn't exactly fun when their last song unfurled into a funeral march through the audience, but it was something. It was quite a surprise how much they rocked. I imagine if I was in college, I would have been jumping up and down on my right foot as well.
I know it looks bad, but this guy was really entertaining, and at the very least it was something you don't see everyday, if ever. He goes by the name Final Fantasy, which makes it very hard to find anything about him on the Internet.
