Drunken english 101 - midterm report

Cat Club
You know you’ve been too much to Cat Club when:
- you know all the American classics from the 80s
- the bouncer now recognizes you
- you know all the words of “Like a prayer”
- you too, you scream when you hear the first notes of Journey’s “Midnight train”
- you lose 2 pounds everytime you go
- you lose your jacket every other time.

But in all this wisdom naturally acquired, what about my newly discovered drunken English skills? Well, yesterday was midterms for me and I’m sorry to say but I failed. I did pretty well in pronunciation I think. No spit, no mumbling, not too many blanks looking for words. But the problem is this: I was so focused on it that I forgot the other half of the evaluation, content. I doubt that anyone has been impressed to know about killdeers, the Mono Lake or even how having Rock Band should be in the top 10 qualities for a guy.

Another nuit broucouille, this class is really hard.

Thanks to my friends with taste…

…I’m getting to see Garaj Mahal tonight at Yoshi’s :). Featuring the best bassist in the world Kai Eckhardt, guitar virtuoso Fareed Haque, drummer Alan Hertz, and Eric Levy on the keyboard.





Update:
Little update on this. It was not Alan Hertz on the drums, the just-as-talented Sean Rickman. I wished someone had taped the show, but I still found a recent show of them. Recorder on January 8th, 2009, in Santa Cruz, CA:

Umphrey’s McGee — Tonight at Fillmore

Yay! I’m going to see Umphrey’s tonight at the Fillmore in SF — yay! They’re a Jam rock band with endless guitar solos and improvisations of all sorts. They freakin’ rock!

I’ll write more about them later, but here is a video of them, just to try to convince some more people to go (yes, you boris, marc, cyril, justine, farid, …)
