it’s been awhile, hasn’t it? this is what happens when i get bored and no one is around to play scrabble with me.

samples:

( i remember when i used to be into nostalgia. )

basically, i want to marry lars. stabby and i went to record archive at 4:45ish and i bought five bajillion cd’s (read: eight). lars arrived around 5:00ish, and we had lots of time to chat and such. we talked about atom and his package, because lars saw the pins i have on my bag. you see, aahp is like my second favorite band ever, so lars and i were able to go on and on about how amazing atom is. and he told me that he contributed a song to an aahp tribute album that’ll be released next month! so awesome.

he also signed my ipod. he added the “j/k!” when i mentioned i don’t steal music, instead i shop at record archive. lol. oh, and he signed some monopoly money i had in my wallet. that makes like forty items i own that are now signed by lars. lolz.

and he “played” a set, too! i put that in quotes, because i’m not 100% sure that’s what it was. you see, he forgot to bring his laptop (although he did bring his band). so we were treated to an a cappella version of mc lars. definitely a new experience for everyone involved…

in other words, it was a very good time! after the show we talked again and he mentioned that he really liked the websites i’ve designed, and told me to keep being awesome. oh man, i love your mc lars.

okay, so no one will go with me to the mc lars show on saturday (how can i be the only person i know that loves this man so much?). but he will also be visiting record archive the same afternoon, so i can see him then at least. plus i haven’t been in like two weeks, which is unacceptable. but i’ll need a ride back from the ’seo…

haha and mc lars is looking for a web designer! i emailed him, but i doubt i’ll get a response. still worth giving it a stab!

so here’s the dealio (the dealio of life). mc lars promised he’d be back in the roc sometime in august or september, and i guess he is playing at RIT on saturday, september 20th. the problemo with this is that you can’t buy tickets online, you have to go to the “gordon field house box office” to get the tickets.

questions:
1. liz, you in? curls, you too?
2. mom, can you buy some tickets? they are $15, $12 if you can prove you’re an alumnus.

LIZ! we are slightly in the record archive commercial!

hilarious.

i saw mc lars last night!

oh my, i love you lars.

(1) i went to the show with curls, jon (her bf), and liz. to burn time before, we went to the movies and saw smart people, which wasn’t the best, but wasn’t the worst. anyway, back to the concert.

(2) the opening bands didn’t suck! and i actually really liked one, called vice grip. they started their set with a cover of “backstreet’s back” and they had a keytar player — and it only went up from there.

(3) mc lars played with his east coast band once again, which i adore. they sounded fantastic. and he played the dvd instead of his usual slideshow, which was also amazing, because it also included non sequiturs between songs.

(4) songs played (only kind of in order from memory): space game, straight outta stockholm, hurricane fresh, uk visa versa, 21 concepts, mr. raven, ahab, if i had a time machine that would be fresh, hipster girl, download this song, signing emo, hot topic is not punk rock, igeneration, and generic crunk rap.

(5) after the show we talked to lars as usual and he signed my new shirt (fourth!) — lanni rocks! -mc lars. when i told him that’s how he signed my shirt last time, he added — p.s. still!. so that was fresh. i love mc lars.

(6) read about my past mc lars experiences: aug. 08, mar. 07, and aug. 06.

MC LARS IS PLAYING AT WATERSTREET ON SATURDAY!

this is fantastic. i was just procrastinating and doing my weekly checks at some very important websites (the waterstreet music hall concert schedule and the WBER concert schedule) when i saw his photo (the premiere *squee*). seems as though they just scheduled it yesterday, as my weekly checks are sometimes more-than-weekly and i would have noticed something as amazing as this. omgyay! *majorsquee*

so yeah, super psyched to go. this works out well, actually, as i have the car here for the weekend and i was going to bring it back sunday anyway.

if you’re interesting in attending with me, let me know.

oh, mc lars concert, how can i describe thee?

obviously, a list. a long list. and a mandatory teaser photo.

me and mc lars. first he told me he likes my “style” then said he remembered me from last time, and then he made a crazy face for my photo. i love him. seriously.

( continue reading this entry! )

so, on wednesday liz, curls, and i piled in the car and headed to waterstreet, obvs for the mc lars concert. three bands opened for him, patent pending, the levar burtones, and suburban legends. of course, none of them really appealed to me, but the burtone’s ska was tolerable. the suburban legends played ska too, and they also had awesome choreographed dance moves, so that was okay.

mc lars did space game, igeneration, download this song, mr. raven, ahab, generic crunk rap, hipster girl, 21 concepts, hot topic is not punk rock, signing emo, and hurricane fresh (yes!). he did not play my two favourite though—rapgirl and if i had a time machine, that would be fresh. so that made me slightly sad.

on a music-quality level, i preferred when mc lars performed with a live band last time, opposed to his garage band accompaniment that he had this time. it’s just not as dynamic without it. but he did have a slideshow to go along with it, so that was cool.

i got pushed to the front of the stage when they were moshing, and i could not for the life of me get back to the middle where i was. so i spent the rest of the time in the front, constantly being sucked into the mosh pit. i don’t like being in close proximity of other people, but i could not get out of there. i lost a shoe in the middle of the show and couldn’t find it until the end, so my toes got stepped on a lot (oh, and after looking around for a bit, i eventually did find it, fyi). but i think i actually enjoyed it, it was a lot more intense.

after the show i talked to lars and he told me that he remembered me from the last show, which was really really really cool. and then he signed my new mc lars t-shirt: lanni, you are fresh. -mc lars. he also wrote a heart on it, which leads me to the conclusion that he’s in love with me. ha ha ha , obvs not for realz. he also signed my poster. he’s awesome. we talked a bit about macs, because he does his “post-punk laptop rap” on his macbook. which reminds me, liz and i were the only people that shouted when mc lars mentioned acquisition before “download this song.” hilarious.

excuse my french, but holy shit. mc lars was the most amazing concert i’ve been to yet. yes, the lack of a live band made the music a bit more bland, but there is much much more that added to the night which made it the best ever. and i’ll tell you about that… tomorrow! because it’s 11:45 on a school night and my mother is making me go to bed.

in other news, i got accepted to SUNY geneseo! considering it was my top choice, i’m very excited. i haven’t visited yet, so i’ll have to get on that asap.
