Weekend!

I realize that the grad school summer lifestyle really makes little differentiation between the weekend and any other time of the week, but last night was Friday and the Forest was having a benefit concert at Octopus Diamond, and Ryan's a pretty cool guy, so I braved the rain and popped by.

I didn't know what to expect, but it was an excellent show. First up was Billy Liar, who Donna described as "a Sex Pistol". His appearance was a little on the punk side, but that was okay - it's not that far from Flogging Molly to honest punk. Next up was a guy named Jed, and our table swooned a little. Ryan claims he has a beautiful soul. Honestly, if he had just kept playing, I would have been quite content to watch...and, erm, listen.

Well, it was Friday...
