neverwhereLast night ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
achtung_meggy came down to visit me in Hollywood after work, and we had a brilliant time, eating at a late night diner and laughing about everything and nothing (as usual) in our most geeky way. We also discovered that we just missed seeing Eddie Izzard that night, and the next two nights were sold out, which made us wail and moan (especially me, and quite loudly, to the bemusement of Megan) and feel generally annoyed. Phoo.
Megan also told me that A World Without Sundays (the kickass band that performed at the TORN Oscar Party) will be playing at a trendy nightclub on the Sunset Strip on saturday night, and after an entire day of deliberation, I finally bought my ticket about ten minutes ago. I really like this band, but I felt (and still do feel) too afraid to actually attend a concert, especially at such a swish club, surrounded by trendy people in all their trendy, anti-Nevvieness. I was literally shaking last night when Megan was trying to convince me to go, because I so fear being around teenagers and beautiful (or at least, interesting looking) twenty-somethings. I'm still considering not going, even though I've already paid for my ticket, I'm that nervous. Aren't I ridiculous? It doesn't help matters that it's a Halloween concert, and everyone's supposed to come in costume, and I have absolutely nothing to wear. I only have my faerie wings, which are sparkly and purple and therefore fabulous, but they're also very large and would hit anyone within several feet of me -- not the best way to make friends in a crowded venue, I'm sure.
Aiya, what to do? Help me LJ friends, you're my only hope!
Oh, andtrianne or mailea -- Is Elijah in town? (Of course one of you would know. ;-) Any chance of him showing up at the concert? Probably not, unless he was in costume to avoid being pounced on by all the squealing fangirls. But if he is...I'll try and find him for you. *grins*
*looks at mood icon* Yes, I am a big, dorky dork. Go me. :)

Date: 2004-10-22 05:14 am (UTC)They had a free concert? AIYA! No fair. Well, this one is only $10, which really isn't bad at all.
And if some of the TORN party crowd will be there, then I'm sure I won't be the only non-teenybopper type person. Let's hope so. *crosses fingers and toes* ;-)

Date: 2004-10-26 05:19 am (UTC)I was standing right under Shox throughout the show, and standing next to a friend of his waiting in the queue for shirts, so I vicariously hugged him via my neighbour. *grins*
I did meet Guy, and now I am heeeeeeeeelplessly in love. *SWOOOON* :D

Date: 2004-10-26 07:02 am (UTC)Did they play 'Falling Down'? They didn't play it when I saw them at the Roxy and that's one of my fav WWS songs, EVER...although they played Drunk and Colorblind so I was a happy fangirl!
