Throw Me The Statue & The Brunettes

September 11th, 2009 | 12:48

Kathleen and I walked down to the Drunken Unicorn Monday night to see Throw Me The Statue and The Brunettes. Also, a band called The Nurses opened.

It was a good show, but started way too late. I just can’t go to shows on work nights that go past 1 AM anymore. I feel so old.

Sorry about the crappy cell phone picture, it’s all I had with me.

The Brunettes

Sir Paul McCartney

Can’t believe I have forgotten to post about this.  On my birthday Kathleen took us to see Paul McCartney in Piedmont Park!

It was amazing. We were about 25 feet from the stage. We got rained on for about 20 minutes, and nobody moved. He played for over 2 hours straight.

Unfortunately, we didn’t take our camera because they said they weren’t allowed, but everyone else had one. We took a disposable camera though. Should have those developed soon.

Snowden at the Earl 7/3/09

Went to see Snowden at the Earl a while ago. Finally got the pics up. I didn’t really like their new stuff as much as the last album, but the show was still good.

An old friend from college’s band was one of the openers, The Sea Lions. They were really good.

Venice is Sinking at the High

James’ band Venice is Sinking played at Kathleen’s event she organized at the Woodruff Arts Center on Thursday. They were good as usual. My parents came out because they liked them from our wedding so much.

Also, Brent brought an old friend of ours who was a foreign exchange student from Sweden when we were in high school. It was really great to see Johan again. He’s really a very nice guy, and just fun to hang out with.

I got the image from this guy’s site who was at a lot of the shows taking pictures:

Jersey Boys

My parents took Kathleen and I to see Jersey Boys at the Fox on Saturday.  It’s the story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. It was really good, and filled in a lot of the history of the group that I didn’t really know much about.
