You. Oh You. When You Do Those Things You Do.

What a fun night.  I broke through my sickness to travel outside of Los Angeles County for the first time since I moved here.  My friends The Rocket Summer, were playing a show in Anaheim. I was on the guest list and I did not have to drive.  The perfect combination for attending a musical event.  So, I traveled across city lines with Jodee, Ashli, Jessica, Kitty, and Kelly.  Yes, A car full of young ladies and myself.  I did not freak out, I just relaxed and zoned out when the "milk fest" ( I was informed of the phrase last night), got too hormonal. 

So, after about half an hour in the car.. we arrive at The Grove in Anaheim.  Located right next to Angel Stadium.  The Grove in Anaheim is not a mall, like the one we have on Fairfax and 3rd, but a HUGE music complex.  Walking into the venue, I made a comment on how I felt the venue was too big for the band.  Later on, Bryce made the same comment.  There were a good amount of people... maybe close to a 1000.  But, the venue mitigated the crowed of Tweens and Teens.

We arrived in time to watch The Secret Handshake. An acquaintance of mine from Dallas.  Then went outside to have a smoke, and met up with Seth.  Seth and I ended up talking outside through Phantom Planets set, so I missed them.  It was getting close for the time for TRS to play.  So , Seth invited me on stage to watch the show.  

Looking out at the sea of faces from the side of the stage made me miss playing music more than anything thus far.  I think the hardest part about playing music in LA is having a practice space.  Few people have homes to practice in, and you cant very well practice in apartments.  Practice spaces are expensive.  As, soon as I have an available place to play music.. I would love to take hold of that opportunity.

After the show, Ashli had the bright idea to go to Sonic for a late dinner.  I have not seen a Sonic since I have moved out here, and was gung ho. The waitress informed us that the Sonic we were eating at was the ONLY ONE in California.  She mentioned there were at one point 3 Sonics, but the other two had burned down... haha.

We drove back to LA, and I went to bed.  I would like to thank everyone who made last night such a great evening.  I am also excited to get to hang out with TRS guys on Saturday!  This time in my neck of the woods...

Tonight I am going to Milos' wedding.  Which means I get to dress up AND leave work early! Good day!
