why is music the king of everything?

I know you all are really picking up how much i love music but i'm going to say it again! i love music! i love it a lot! it actually got me a compliment tonight, which was great fun. since i've seen the shins one of my mom's students got a bit depressed. she loves them, i like them, but she's never seen them and i have. it's so super! i really have to say, for all of you who haven't heard of or gone to Sasquatch, go this next year. it's this huge concert with thirty or more bands on two stages that goes all day. i didn't know something like three of the bands this year but all of the bands rocked hard. sleater-kinney is this chick rock band that's been around a long time in the NW but never has hit it huge, they're too true, i guess. they're pretty fun, sara doesn't like them, lol. but every band that was there was great. the highest energy concert of the night had to belong to the Black Keys, though. out of all the bands they just got up and rocked and bashed and rocked and had a great time. they were so much fun to watch. the kicker is that there are only two guys in the band. two skinny white guys. this wouldn't be so odd if they weren't playing a stripped down, lofi indie rock/blues fussion. but they were great. i loved them before the concert and that only made them better. so yeah, go to sasquatch, it's impossible to find more bands making better performances, period. the only set that looked close was the NY Pop Fest. it had a lot of great bands and a lot i hadn't heard of. but i just don't know, it's a three day, 300+ band kind of maneuver and i don't know that i could be happy missing a third of the bands because they're all playing at the same time...so yeah, lol. so on to another subject, how the hell did black widows become so damned numerous this year? i found three egg sacs under my damn bed yesterday and burned them up today. add to that that i found another juvenile in my window well and i have to wonder if they don't absolutely dig on cool, wet summers...i don't know, i just know i have a lot of them around. i'm hoping i don't get bit, too. but yeah. and i have to say that i do like carolyn's poetry, she's good. ready for the connection? ashley got bit, she's in english, carolyn's in english and i like her poetry, lol. i make such perfect sense to myself. it's great. some folks can't claim even that. and i am drinking a great beer my parents brought home. it's buffalo bill's brewery, the pumpkin ale. it's got pumpkin and spices brewed right in. it's a great little fall type of ale, i have to say. knowing it's nippy outside and yet being warm and drinking this is a nice escape. so yeah, i'll just let you all get back to your busy lives and enjoy yourselves. i'm going to make music tomorrow and maybe we'll record, so i'm excited as hell! yeah!(howard dean style there) so yeah, talk to you soon, vale
