like going home for two hours

yesterday started off as a bit of a jonah day...flat tire, cut finger, sweaty....you know. but it ended up being a rather productive one. its been really warm here (apparently because of all the madness happening in the gulf) and i almost didn't need a jacket last night.

but the highlight of yesterday was going to the arcade fire show...absolutely brilliant. i met up with chris, rich (#3), matt and darren had a drink and then headed for the show. there was one extra ticket - that i got 'cause i'm a girl - and chris waited outside to see if he could scalp one. they were originally asking £50!!!! for a canadian band???!! something is wacky. i think he ended up paying £30.

the show was amazing and crazy and probably the sweatiest i have ever been in my life. i've been to some crammed venues before, but the academy has absolutely no ventilation and lots of people. but don't worry mum, there were lots of emergency exits.

...felt like going back to montreal for a couple of hours, it was really quite something.
