out of the races and on to the tracks

i swear, if i didn't know better, i'd think i was hungover, and yet, i haven't had a drop of alcohol since....probably the aina/most secret show.and that was a whole week ago.

i think...right? yeah. one week.

last night was trooper (who rocked the shit out of the ft.)(i'll even take back making fun of them for wanking out the first time)el guapo who are just....neat-O and the dismemberment plan, who played primarily new stuff, which was nice. although i don't think two of the boys (i'm not gonna say who) could hear each other play. and hillary soldati jumping up and allllll over the boys was pretty funny.

i didn't go to guapo's (the restaurant) (el guapo- great electronic 3-piece DC band, Guapo's- realllllly tasty mexican restaurant near ft. reno where it's customary to sling back a few margarita's apres le rock) because i hi-tailed it to the black cat to catch the rapture. i missed orthrelm (orthrelm twice in one week would have been too much anyway...) and i made it just in time to catch their opening of a cover of the psychedelic furs 'dumbwaiter' which is probably one of my most favoritest songs in the universe.

My god. If you haven't heard the rapture... (start with their newest e.p. Out of the Races and on to the Tracks)(it might just restore your faith in Sub Pop. actually, it's good enough to make me forgive sub pop for the last 7 years....including all those zumpano records...)(i'm sorry, but that was some stinky cheese right there)

rarely has a band probably ever be more truly named than the rapture. people were losing their minds at that show. i don't think i have seen so much all-out ass-shaking dancing in a long time. and that is including that annoying girl from the barcelona show, who thought it would be funny to dance/pantomime the lyrics. here's a hint- rhymes with WASN'T.

but oh my lord, the rapture the rapture the rapture.

get it? good
