passion pit

on thursday april 8 i went to passion pit in the venue.  the experience is one that i would describe as being similar to injecting soul candy into my brain while exchanging some body heat with aphrodite on a floating cloud.  yeah it was that good.  my day up until the concert had been mediocre, i was tired from a late night before and an early morning of studying and quizzes.  finally around 6 people started showing up at my home, the lovely and always fun burrow.  by this time i was finally getting a tiny bit excited.  finally left, got there, found a relatively close parking spot and headed over.  it was about 7 by this time and so i asked the bouncers how much longer until passion pit would go on.  the dykey plump gothic bouncer standing by herself replied "probably after all the opening bands go on", no wonder you were standing by yourself dykey plump gothic bouncer girl.  the MUCH cooler straight edge dude bouncer told me that they probably wouldn't be on until 8.  we debated whether to go in or to eat for a solid 15 minutes and then made our way towards jason's deli after making our decision.  on the way a teen mother asked us if she could follow us because she didnt know the area and i found out she was just riding the train from city to city by herself with her newborn, quite irrelevant, but very sad.  once we got to jasons deli i partook of the free ice cream and stared in awe at all of the jazz paraphernalia lining the walls.  blah blah blah we made it back to the venue and made our way up front where we met up with all our people.  excellent crew had been assembled and the opening bands just finished so we were set for success.  the only thing was, passion pit decided to wait a solid 30 minutes before coming on, and probably for no other reason than just because they could.  anyway, after what seemed like years to my lower back, the lights finally dimmed and we pushed our way to the front.  and then when the set lights turned on and passion pit came out, i was teleported onto my cloud with aphrodite anxiously  awaiting to inject soul candy into my brain. wish you all could have been there.
