this past weekend, we were in austin to see a concert. we had gone to see the all girl punk band called finally punk who happened to be playing with a few throwback punk/hardcore as well as a couple of post-punk kind of bands.
the first of the punk bands was called life trap, they are from tennessee and were pretty impressive. the singer was somewhat fashioned after henry rollins in that he looks like he lives a double life as a navy seal or some other special ops sort of thing. the other band members were straightforward, fast playing punk kids.
finally punk played and it was pretty much what i expected, good songs frazzled with seemily little practice.

i left the show with an idea that i turned into a mediocore story:
whilest i was in austin, i saw a wonderful magician. his stage act includes only one trick, but the crowd loves it and always yearns for a second act. his trick makes use of a blind golden retriever, which stands in the audience, as he stands on stage. the trick is getting the dog to take this very plain dog food from his hand, which he does through means much like any dog owner would feed his dog. and the crowd goes wild after seeing the dog takes the food from the other dogs hand.

love and flowers
