hello lovelies, it's been ages, I know, but I am again compelled to post, so here you go! I once again got to see Belle and Sebastian this past October in Washington, DC, and while it's a bit late for reporting back, I had a wonderful time, and the performance was lovely. Quite a good mixture of songs both old and new, and the band seemed to be into it. Lisa also managed to get me backstage with her afterwards, which was lovely of her, and ended up being a great time, despite the fact that I ended up with one of the 5 worst hangovers of my entire life, and a very long taxi ride, as I had missed the last metro train by hours. The only further thing I will say about that is how encouraging it is to meet the members of a band you have loved for years and find out that they are actually nice people. The most exciting thing in my life recently has been planning for an upcoming trip to Glasgow and London....in fact this trip is almost nearly upon me, as I leave tomorrow at 8pm and arrive in Glasgow at 9:30am on Tuesday. I don't really have too many concrete plans for the next few weeks, just to head around town, try to meet people, and see where that takes me. Anyone who would like to meet up for coffee or a drink would be fantastic! Any general advice, as far as places to check out (or anything else for that matter) would be wonderful as well. I'll be flying from Glasgow to London on the 6th, which should also be loads of fun! Not a bad way to ring in the new year eh? Come to think of it, I probably should have written this post earlier, so there would be more time for people to respond....but well, that's procrastination for you!
