Bright Eyes

So Friday after work we went to HOTlanta to see the Bright Eyes show. I'll have to admit I've never been a huge Bright Eyes fan, but I really did enjoy myself. The show was fantastic and I really enjoy his more up-beat music (which there was a lot more of than I expected). Check him out.

The opening band was Oakley Hall or something... I wasn't too impressed with them. Then up was Jillian somebody. It was just her and a guy doing some acoustic bluegrassy stuff. I'm not a country fan, but bluegrass is different - and yes, I like it. Anyway, their music was pretty good. Again - I was more into the upbeat stuff. And then, there was Bright Eyes.

He had a screen set up in back of the stage and a huge sprawl of instruments. There were two drummers, which rocked my face off. Both women, at that. They were rocking that shit. (I'm going to start playing my set one of these days... I SO miss it.) Anyway, it was fun. It was a really nice show and I'm glad we got to go.

The venue was pretty sweet, also. The Fabulous Fox in Atlanta... it's really nice. But anyway. No trip out of town would be complete without us getting lost at least once. So of course we did. We didn't make it home until around 3 am, but that's ok. Now I've gotta get psyched for the Tool show this weekend. Woo!
