you won't be the first...



tonight after work i went to mishi's to drop off some dish washing soap...sure, so what? well, i had to buy, for the show i'm on, many, many bottles of palmolive dishwashing soap...um....30 - 5 litre bottles and 15 - 1 litre bottles...and then we didn't end up needing it...so..i have lots here..now mishi has lots...good times...
then after i did that deed i headed over to commercial drive..i know, shocker, garn on commercial drive..i went to lend my support to my pal kim sister's band, vonnegut dollhouse. check 'em out, they're on myspace...it was at a restaurant on the drive so it was very civilized and her parents were there..it was their first gig ever so i thought i should have a look..they were great...all the songs had this slightly epic edge to them with circa 60's keyboard action and many structural changes within the same song...if i had been smokin' pot, i would have been freakin' out...alas, i am a drug nerd so no pot for old garn...i'm glad i went...
and then, for reasons i won't get into because it's all so complicated..i have ended up back at the shop and now will head home...night night...

ps..
sometimes it all comes together...as i drove back to the shop tonight my ipod gave me freedy johnston's 'lucky one' from 'can you fly' - an album that really was a watershed moment for him and then sebadoh's 'brand new love' off 'bang your head on a punk rock'...both songs perfect...both so completely different from one another...i couldn't have asked for anyhting more...

mishi gets down with the palmolive...




kim's sister rocks out...without soap...

Thanks for coming Garn! I'm so proud of my sister and her band mates. They rocked the f'ing house!!!
