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:

Last Thursday (4/23) Kathleen and I went to see the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra perform Mahler’s Sixth Symphony with her boss and her boss’s husband. Donald Runnicles was the conductor. He’s the Chief Conductor of the BBC Scottish Orchestra, so that’s pretty cool.

I really enjoyed it, and will have to start taking advantage of Kathleen’s job to go see more shows by the ASO.

Her boss treated us to dinner at Atmosphere beforehand. Which was awesome of them. And the food there was really good.
