i've said it before, and i'll say it again now. one thing you all must do in your life is go and see one of your all time favourite bands in a small venue. i've been lucky enough to have done this three times now. it was TOOL in Zurich in 2001, ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead in 2002 and yesterday, it was Lagwagon for 2003. and at each show, i've been alone. singing along to every word, in the prettiest voice you've never heard. and i've been happy.
but even if you're not a music fan, what i'm saying is, just go out and do something you love. even if you are alone.
Some of my best ever dinners have been had alone. I see movies alone too, but that's usually because I'm thinking something through.
(I've seen the Magnetic Fields in Washington, D.C. and London, but I didn't see them when they came to Melbourne. The show was $40 and I figured was too much, or I didn't feel like it, or something. Now I think, you EEDIOT. How many people would have seen the Magentic Fields play on THREE CONTINENTS?)
