first... I GET TO SEE RENATA *AND* ROB ON SATURDAY!!!!!!! and, this means that kismet and renata get to meet! (and rob and stu and such...) i'm sooooooo haaaaaaaappy.


dude. ok, theo's java club in rock island, FUN time. stuart was so on, he was rockin, it was good to see him. and it will be good to see him this weekend too. so, setlist/rant. i promised the monktalk list i'd do it, so heeeeere it comes baby.


flower of a zero - mmm, it was "brother digs fingering his bible" and "mother's down bingen' in the basement" i was like *flail*
savoring samsara - "you think the new cord is better because it works!" his guitar cords were having some issues, and drew suggested stuart use the NEW guitar cord thingy.... but it was an idea not readily accepted.
sugar bullets - the guitar cord had further problems, and he FINALLY changed to the new one. everyone applauded when he replugged it in... "later i will be plugging in all sorts of things! *wild applause*"
wizard - i LOVE this song.
human girl - guess what, i love this song too! who'd have thunk it.
away in the manger - "away in the manger inventing some stuff, our little boy edison had it so... rough..."
inventions
jonah
nothing in between - "you're so agile, moving about the room, have you considered a career in spelunking?" re: drew sneaking back to his seat and running into a bunch of stuff.
eight days in the lotus
bell
sexy messiah - the prelude to this song was pretty crazy. i dont' recall the exact order.... though, i believe... first he took my water bottle. which is square... btw. and was like "square must be the shape that makes you most thirsty" and... how the shape that made him most thirsty couldn't be formed due to euclidean geometry? or somesuch? well. yes, then he was like "square bottles are prolly really good for throwing...." and i kind of hid because it looked like he was winding up for a throw... and he's like "no no, i won't....." and i was thankful.... you know, i don't think all that happpened first. i think he asked what song i wanted to hear first. and i said sexy messiah. and that's when he took my water bottle, and drew all sorts of attention to me and made me blush. (lesson for rob!)
atavistic viking - "yeah, well it wasn't funny if you lived in greenland!" re: laughing at him.
surfaces - apparently the first time live? what?
doppelganger
chow down - i don't know exactly what went wrong where. but there was confusion. and kismet and i were cracking up. as was stu. it was pretty funny.
invincible
universe communion
and she was again, with the humoring megan. there were ALL these requests. and i was like "ahem, and she was." and it was so.


sidenotes: stuart was in such a "let's humor megan" mood tonight. seriously. dunno what the deal was with that, but i'm not complaining. also, he promised puppies to anyone who came to the rockford and chicago shows. and as initiative to sign up for the mailing list. "if you can't pick up your puppy this weekend, we'll mail it to you!" another sidenote... we got lost, and travis is our savior. he came and found us. and led us back to theos. but on the way, he seriously almost drove off the road. like, he went to exit but we weren't at the exit. and when we asked him what the deal was, he's like "well, it happens." aaaaaah travis.


alright. i'm spent. goooooodnight loves!
