WEEKEND UPDATE +1

NYU finally saw the light and invited me to interview, less than a week before i begin my rotation there. konichiwa, bitches

its been busy round here.

FRI: went to continental airlines arena in jersey (jersey!) with bard to see half of a weezer set and the foo fighters. surprisingly, weezer delivered a pretty good show, and played a bunch of shit off of pinkerton. rivers even ran around the stage, jumping in place and shit, during "el scorcho." that's the most life i've seen in that dude since the buddy holly video. they also played buddy holly. worst part: the travel time. we spent a good few hours coming home, via bus and train.

note: it rained all of last week.

SAT: went to the digital life expo at the javits center on the west side. it was kinda geeked out, but once we got into the sync magazine red carpet VIP area deal, it was pretty fun. lots of rappers and shit. black thought, ?uestlove, cam'ron, juelz santana (FOR REAL), redman (with baby momma in tow), fabolous, dj clue (DJ CLUE), lala and quddus from mtv, and the gotti brothers. i talked with this dude korey from season 1 of punk'd for a little while, turns out his dayjob is pharmacy tech just up the block from sinai. yeah, the convo wasn't all that interesting. oh and there was one of those pro wrestling booty girls that are all buff and weird looking. OH and jessica alba. she was there too. otherwise a whole lot of schmoozing. i think i'd probably be bad at PR.

note: i have purchased my ticket to chicago for tha 446/go team! show over halloween weekend. fly in friday night, fly out sunday night. THIS BETTER BE WORTH IT

SUN: tamar had a BBQ for her internet friends who are all married or engaged to be married, and brought along their respective S.O.'s. so all these dudes got to hang out by default. we grilled a lot of meat and ate way too much food. mexican brownies = adding cinnamon. AWES. met a dude from australia who programs computers and knows a lot about global economy. also met a dude who totally hit one out of the fucking park with his girl, seriously. homeboy got mad lucky, it seems.

note: p dubs is coming tomorrow.

MON: bard pulls a last minute "holy shit" and scores us tickets to see franz ferdinand and tv on the radio at the theater at MSG. great venue. really good sound and the view from our seats wasn't bad either. totally jammed out to a very fun performance by franz. trumped the weezer/foo fighters show in my opinion, but bard said franz was sloppier than they usually are. then we hauled ass to the tribeca grand for the "official NYC franz ferdinand afterparty" featuring a whole mess of DJs and a special midnight performance by sons and daughters. also drinks compliments of harp's and some vodka from sweden. the place was packed. we jammed for a while and watched a bit of S&D when they finally took the stage around 1:15, but had to exit since my ass needed to wake up this morning. today went off without a hitch on about 3 hours of sleep. i'm good at this shit.

note: photos to be uploaded to flickr later on. i need to lay(lie?) down.

I was going to post a relevant comment, but then I noticed that the hairs on my knee come out in sets of three.

THREE!
