It's been so long and so much has happened!!!
The next thing to happen after my last Blog entry was seeing The Envy and Safe and Sane at the Java Flow. They were intense to say the least. Good screaming, loud, aggressive rock.
I saw Jeanlizabeth at Tugboat Annie's and that was nice. She sings soulful heartfelt songs. Speed Limit 35 stopped doing shows, which is too bad 'cause it really rocked there, but it was I suppose inevitable since it is a residential house and all. Java Flow finished up with a big show with lots of bands for their last show. Saw Locust Street Taxi at Super Saturday, even though it was raining. The all ages venue has found a location downtown, with Last Word Books, That ROCKS. And I heard Stephan Smith at the Eastside Club the other night, and that was remarkable. My friend told me I should go 'cause it's like a new Arlo Guthrie, and he's opened for Dylan and Ani, and yeah, I wasn't disappointed, although he puts me more in mind of Bob Dylan than Arlo Guthrie. At any rate the songs are poigniant piercing addresses to a government gone mad, and speaks to my heart about where we as a people are. I feel like I make have gotten to see a Bob Dylan of our generation at the Eastside, but internalizing what he sings is more important than saying wow. I should go see more shows, and I should remember more shows I see but I guess I'm only human so anyhow this is updated for now. Hope that everyone in Olympia is enjoying some music. Smiles to everyone. Peace.
