weekend

Checked out z_kungfu’s bar space. Went for a ride with z_kungfu and mrs_esterhaus.

Soccer Sunday. Again, proving I should exercise. Managed to twist my ankle a bit. Went for a another ride up around the Falls Lake area.

Then off to see Rasputina with badger. Opening band was called Tarantula AD, and was pretty cool. At various points reminded me a bit of Wetton era King Crimson, Fantomas, or Krakatoa. Picked up a cd.

Rasputina was pretty good. I wasn’t really familiar with them at all, so wasn’t sure what to expect. The primary vocalist has a very cool voice, at times reminding me of Laurie Anderson (particular on a song that I think was “Signs of the Zodiac”?) and Cyndi Lauper (a pretty strong accent…). Pretty entertaining. Spotted leslieerin and a few other folks.
