[2:36 a.m.] : [2003-05-22]

sophia's tonight was kind of waf, with two exceptions that made it worth while. 1)danny telling his girlfriend he was just stepping out for a minute to get a bite to eat followed promptly by him jumping into the back of the car and joining us for the long haul of the night. 2)the couple that had snuck into the mens room not anticipating a crowd of surly bar goers needing to urinate and then having to face that crowd as they tried to not make it obvious they had just got in on in the hole that is the mens room.

here is a mountain goats song. i had heard this about eight months ago at like two a.m. driving home from work on the radiostation rice university runs. i have papers floating around my car with band names and song lists i scratch down when i hear something that i like. before i left houston the last cd i bought was a mountain goats album entitled tallehasse(spl?)(thier new one) i purchased it without making the name connection from the record cover to the paper in my glove box. i was at the record store in town a couple of weeks ago (did i already tell you this story? i can't remember it's late) and was looking for more mountain goats and bought the album entitled all hail west texas and i noticed track one and then made the connection and felt like a tool. so anyways

the best ever death metal band in denton, the mountain goats.

the best ever death metal band out of denton were a couple of guys, who'd been friends since grade school. one was named cyrus, and the other was jeff. and they practiced twice a week in jeff's bedroom.

the best ever death metal band out of denton never settled on a name. but the top three contenders, after weeks of debate, were satan's fingers, and the killers, and the hospital bombers.

jeff and cyrus believed in their hearts they were headed for stage lights and leer jets, and fortune and fame. so in script that made prominent use of a pentagram, they stenciled their drumheads and guitars with their names.

this was how cyrus got sent to the school where they told him he'd never be famous. and this was why jeff, in the letters he'd write to his friend, helped develop a plan to get even.
when you punish a person for dreaming his dream, don't expect him to thank or forgive you.

the best ever death metal band out of denton will in time both outpace and outlive you.
hail satan!
hail satan tonight!
hail satan!
hail hail!

that is all of that, i just want to clerify i in no way endorse the hailing of satan, but in this one song it seems to work nicely as a lyric. you should download the song or buy the album or buy all thier albums. thier good, real good.

i am going to cross the street back home and collapse into my bed and stare at the ceiling and try to find sleep which i know will not come, it never does. sleep is just a bastard like that. but the first official league meeting is tomorrow at 12:37(noonish) and seeing as i need to be there i can try to pretend to care even if danny is in the next room(awake) and terrence is also awake(across town getting him some). oh well
