SPRING BREAK 2006

Hell yeah, I'm actually am doing stuff on my Spring Break, for once.

I went to Six Flags over Texas a few days ago... that was interesting. I went on my first 'real' roller coaster: Batman the ride. Yes, I've been told by enough people "That's not a big roller coaster!blahblahnotscaryblah..." but you know, I'm lucky to go on everything at Disneyland. Until a few years ago, I wouldn't. So this is a big step for me.

And now that I'm back in Austin, I'm hitting some of the band shows here for SXSW (south by southwest). Unfortunately, I'm not going to see any Norwegian acts (they were all 21+ or cancelled...). But I did see The Dresden Dolls tonight/last night, and that was awesome. They did a cover of Sabbath's War Pigs that was wonderful. I just wish I wouldn't have had to pay a $25 cover charge.

Tomorrow/today I'm hoping to catch DMBQ, The Duke Spirit and Man Man, along with a Metalhead documentary, some music vids (one from Kaada!), and another documentary about Beethoven (they're from the SXSW film festival).

It's my first year doing the SXSW thing, so it was a pretty big shock.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
