Fan For Life

I used to be one for the nightlife. But not so much anymore. Wait, that's not entirely true. Because actually I went to a club with a friend of mine only a couple of weeks back. Because he lives only a couple of blocks away from it. And we just waltzed into the place without any cover charge--because he knows the owners. And we were there because we're both extreme music junkies and we love all kinds of musical stuff like that. I should've moved to Seattle. That's how much I worship music.
And we just arrived in time for the last four songs of the night but it was good times and we had fun trying to find a spot in the crowd and just listening and watching the live music take place. It was great.
And then afterward, I decided (with the prompting of another person in the crowd) to go ahead and buy the first CD that Menomena made. The guy I was standing next to, told me that it's the one to get and because I'm not only a music junkie, but I'm out of some loops today, I trusted him. And so I approached the table to find that the lead vocalist was the one selling the CD's and when he told me that they were $20 I hesitated because I only had a twenty in my wallet and my debit card had recently been abused, therefore was shut down and I had no other means of cash. He looked at me and smiled and said, "Just download it." What a cool guy. That really won me over.
