The Skinny

Last night, I went to The Plaza to see Peter, Bjorn, and John and if you didn't make it out, it has to be said; you should be peanut butter and JEALOUS!!!  Not ONLY were they even better live (which is always my measure of great music), but the crowd was eclectic, and fun, and completely pumped for the show, making the exchange between artist and audience just. plain. AWESOME.  There were plenty of fedoras, plaid, and skinny jeans to please even the devoutest of hipsters, making the 'people' watching almost as fun as the 'Peter watching'.  (How adorable is he!? And YES, he is really whistling.  I am a witness.  Partake in a small sampling of their songs here, here, and (my personal favorite) here!).  It's Swedish delight. 

So that's the skinny on my Thursdsay!  Exciting as it was, I bid it a fond farewell; I will be promptly picking Michael up from school today and he, myself, and Jimbo will be transforming ourselves into a jedi, a fairy, and a vampire, respectively, so to partake in Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party.  Michael picked our costumes, and in the spirit of Halloween (and maybe a little bit of cruelty) I tried to privately convince him that Jim should be the fairy, and I the vampire....but, alas, at almost 7, he's hip to my tricks.  SIGH.  So it's just treats tonight, for this fairy.  Oh well...C'est la vie, right? 

Happy Weekend!

I'll leave you with the skinny on another GREAT band and song....  Bon Iver: C'est Magnifique!.  C'est tout, folks.
