Yesterday was very full.

First there was an earrrrly morning date with [livejournal.com profile] dancingwaves, who is a pleasure to spend time with and I am so lucky to have met her.

Then there was the trip to the House on the Rock with [livejournal.com profile] minkoflove. It felt like a monument to existentialism: "life's meaningless and absurd, so why the hell not?"

Then we drove the other direction to see Erasure. The singer is a peacock, there's no other way to describe it. It was a good show, even if 90% of the songs were on Pop! It was glitzy and fun, the audience (young pretty gayboys and dolled-up thirtysomething women) were free of detached hipster irony, and I left smiling.

Then we stopped at the Pine Cone (cream puffs as big as your head! elephant ears as big as hubcaps!) for midnight snacks.

Result: one happy tired [livejournal.com profile] eirias who slept very well.

Wait.

They have shows without detached hipster irony? Does the hipsters union know about this?

You saw Erasure live?!? *envy*

I thought you might be jealous. :)

I just went to look up tour dates and am flummoxed to note that they aren't actually touring anywhere near you. That's kind of shocking.

This information makes for a sad [livejournal.com profile] marphod.
