California Blue

DrumJam at Stubb’s tonight

DrumJam plays the Official Blue October Aftershow at Stubb’s tonight, doors at 11:30pm & show at midnight. I love DrumJam’s live performances, but I also felt the desire to post this because I have to brag on myself for two seconds. Basically, I don’t really like Blue October’s music personally.

Acting out the Best of Craigslist

That’s pretty much was Kidnapped by Craigslist was. [Best of Craigslist is a nationwide compilation of funny posts, look on the lefthand side of the craigslist screen for it] I went to this play on Friday night with two girl friends, and we were thoroughly entertained. The theater isn’t much, but the people were super…
