Bamm Bamm & Friends (June 14 2013)[i]

Waking up at 1:41 p.m.


Coffee with Honey and Milk.


Tweaking things in the car. Chores.


Banana.


Lentil Wrap with Hummus and Tomatoes. Tropical Flavored Coconut Water.


At the storage unit running through the Bamm Bamm set with Josiah and Josh. I learned two new songs on the bass just last night but they're fairly simple. Being an avid guitar player it's not difficult for me to pick up on the bass. 


Salt n Vinegar Chips.


Scooping up Kevin and Marianne, our French couch surfer, from the house. We head to Norfolk for the big rock show at The Iguana, formerly 37th and Zen. There's an indecision on who should go first out of the four bands. So Ross, of Keisha Parker (ex-Mas Y Mas), and I play a game of foosball to decide for us. Originally we agreed that whoever wins gets to have their band perform second but instead the winner gets the opposite. It's a battle between defending your honor or losing a preferred spot on the bill. We get down to the last point but he ends up winning. Keisha Parker up first. Then, Bamm Bamm. It's probably the tightest set I've ever played with them. Everything felt right and in sync. Then, Honorary Girl and a veteran math rock band called Boneske.

While one of the bands is playing I sit with Ana enjoying a Crab Cake dinner with a Salad, French Fries, and Bread. She helps with the consuming. I notice she's made of a certain kind of insecure sweetness. She's worried how drunk she might seem after having two beers and a shot. We can't hear each other's voices because of how loud the music is. So we type things on my phone.

Her: "I'm so embarrassed being in this state in front of you."

Me: "It's okay. You're cute."

Her: "I don't wanna be just cute."

Me: "I really like your black & white striped shorts!"

Her: "Heh. They are comfy."


Back home. Enjoying a small bowl of Strawberries and uploading photos from tonight.


Sleep at about 4:30 a.m.
