I'm kind of underwhelmed by the line up for the Treasure Island Music Festival this year. Honestly, why is Death Cab headlining Sunday this year? I do really want to see Beach House and The Antlers. It'd be cool to see St. Vincent again. There were a couple of other bands that seemed like they would be worth seeing, so I'll probably end up going. The site is down so I can't check prices.

Death Cab though? Really? I saw them live once only because Jenny Lewis was opening. I fell asleep in the stands because they were so boring. At least I know I can leave early.

Bruce is going to town on one of my old flip flops. By that, I mean that he's been chewing on it of course. The strap's almost broken through so it's pretty much unwearable now, which is unfortunate because it's what I wear when I go outside in the backyard to play with him and no other shoes are around. I took it away from him. now he's sulking.

Anyway, I just got back from San Francisco. Late night. Went with Amanda and Dinah to see Rent play at the Curran. As in the worldwide tour with Adam Pascal and Anthony Rapp.



As cool as the thought of seeing Rent with THE Roger and Mark was, I also was kind of worried that they'd gotten too old for the roles. Not true. They were amazing. Much better live than in the movie too. The rest of the cast was phenomenal too. Rentheads are nuts, though. They went crazy over everything. Made for a fun experience.

I wanted to stay around the stage door to meet them. It was cold, super crowded, and we had to get back, we did not stay around. Sad.

They were amazing, though.

It was also really nice to see Amanda and Dinah again. I haven't seen Amanda in forever because she's been living the fun life in NY. I hadn't seen Dinah since we saw the Fleet Foxes last April. We were both home for the summer, so there was no excuse for that. It was fun hanging out.

I shall be listening to Rent on repeat for the next day or two, but next Sunday is TREASURE ISLAND, so I've got to start prepping for that :D

Oh. If I freak out because I can't find my Treasure Island ticket, it's in the LOL Europe Shutterfly book. As I will probably not remember this and will freak out over losing my pretty expensive ticket, someone please remind me when the time comes.
