denison marrs denison marrs denison marrs

sigh.

i want to go to orlando tonight soo badlyyy. but it is just not realistic. nick and i went to the orpheum tonight to see denison marrs again. they were there. and starflyer59 was there. good lord allmighty. the hotel year played. i'd only ever heard their name and they were okay but the first song i remember them playing was a very unsettling cover of a denison marrs song. so we sat near the bar and i paid attention to everyone else instead.

the bass player from denison marrs [you'd think with the level of admiration i now hold for these gentlemen i'd at least know their names] was standing around in a red collared shirt with the collar up. he looked crabby but my perception of people is skewed i think.

--i just noticed that i am typing with only one hand. my left hand is propping up my head. and my right hand jumps around the keyboard like a spider.. no wonder i am taking so long

nick pointed out the members of starflyer59 to me as they were setting up the merchandise. somebody's name was cloud, that may have been the bass player but more likely it was the. what do you call that. was it a synthesizer? he reminded me of dan. the drummer reminded me of.. jeff bridges. particularily in the big lebowski.

in front of us sat first a group of boys and first let me tell you all these fashionable people at this place who drive trucks and vans and trains. they are so entertaining to listen to, i fear i might go back more often. would that be so wrong? after the young boys took to the floor to pay attention my hotel year a lovey dovey boy and girl with double x's sit down she's got a black dress with pink outlines and a pearl necklace and fancy earrings and things. a bow in her hair and she looks like she likes to get dressed cause she doesn't do it often. her boyfriend the same way. most of these people here the same way.. though i bet they dress more often. anyhow. nick told me later she would kiss her boyfriend and then look at him. all you have to do is set foot in these places and drama ensues. bitchi'llqueyou. a few feet behind us at the bar an older couple stood (and when i say older i mean only that they are farther into their twenties than i am, though how far i can't really tell) and they were fun to watch because they enjoyed being there, and they enjoyed being with each other. they stood close together and they held hands with the fingers crossed and i saw him watch her watch the show and close his eyes with his forehead rested on her hers.. and these were brief moments but they were wonderful to see. and they danced in a place full of people i wished were dancing.. they hung back for my hotel year but i saw him just a bit behind us during starflyer.. he was dancing then too. it's the little things like this that make nights like these just that much more grand. leave me with that feeling and thinking of every little detail and trying to remember them. and wanting so desperately to just go back to a few hours ago. another thing i noticed in the two in front, the two behind and the two in the middle, the girls were all on the left and the boys all on the right. :shrug: doesn't mean a damn thing, but i noticed it all the same.

-nextmorning-

denison marrs was up next with their shiny pretty amps. sigh. they were absolutely amazing. i think seeing them twice live means i can safely say they're now one of my favorites. we stood up towards the stage with my back to his front and he took pictures through the whole thing [ oh i wanna see them] and it was beaaautiful. it is something i cannot describe (though i wish i had finished this last night because i would have tried like hell anyway). they only played like. six songs (same with starflyer59). they played a couple new songs. excuse me while i drool so much i coexist as a puddle at my feet. i wish i could have seen more, but we were stuck back a few people deep. but even with my short stature if i leaned the right ways i could see all of them. oh oh oh. my car wants to take me to orlando, but i'm just not sure it is healthy enough.

the rest will come later.
