- The Mighty Alkaline Trio -
Well yesterday was an eventful day. After getting up and going to school in the morning, and trying to take a nap but not getting any sleep, Mike and I drove to Cleveland to see the great Alkaline Trio. We got there early, so we decided to go downtown and walk around a bit. We ended up in the theater district, where they had a big part of a street closed off and were apparently filming a movie. And of course it started pouring down rain. But we were going to get wet no matter what, so we said screw it and decided to head towards the lake and get some pictures. Along the way we took a bunch of goofy pictures Mike plans to use in a movie thing he's going to make, saw some bagpipers, saw the lake, and ran around the city in the rain. Then we headed on to the show......
It was quite a good show..... they played for almost two hours, which was great. Lots of their acoustic songs, which they didn't play last time we saw them, and I like very much. Lots of their older stuff, and then some newer stuff. And this time I had a great view, instead of looking around the back of someones head..... it was at an old theater, so we went up on the balcony with the old folks and got a great view of the whole thing.
Then the drive back..... I swear every time I have a long drive somewhere, it has to rain so hard you can barely see a thing. It did on the way up there, then on the way back home, and on plenty of road trips I've been on.... always pouring rain....
Well that's all for now.... I have to get some studying done this weekend for midterms on Monday. Stay tuned to Mike's blog for pictures from the trip.
