_ is the rock!

Last night I happened upon Connie online right before she was leaving for the Ben Kweller/ Matt Nathanson concert. I have to say, I kinda loved Matt Nathanson. Not only was his music really good and just what I was in the mood for, he was actually pretty damn funny. I particularly enjoyed: 1. that he was a self-proclaimed dork and proud of it, 2. that he thinks Amelie is the perfect woman, and 3. he looks a good deal like David Boreanaz, albeit towards the later years of Angel, and he knows it. I don't know if this is on purpose, but he even spikes up the front of his hair in a comical parody of Angel. It's like Angel's hair, but more awesome! He was funny in many, many ways. It was fun to just be able to meet him after his set, get something signed (with "Becky is the rock!!" nonetheless) and say I thought he put on a great show. Kind of cathartic. And I felt a certain sense of irony when I noticed the end of his name. *le sigh*

It was also really fun to get to go out and hang out with a bunch of people I don't know as well. I never really think that I can be a central person in a group, but I had tons of fun with Connie, Kim, and Robert and was totally comfortable just meeting their friends. Plus Connie came back to Bundy to watch Dead Poets' Society, which inspired HAH parallels, always fun. It was just a really satisfying night.
