New Pornographers/The Plus Ones
Great American Music Hall, San Francisco, 26.06.01

Nobody realized it. It was one of the best shows ever and I mean Ever. They were all there and They all had the album and They all knew when to clap when the great songs began but bobbing barely moving tells me that They weren't really getting it at all.

And there I was pogo-ing upstairs and harder and longer than I probably have since BowWowWow at Merlyn's. Jumping high and higher with the big grin grinning. Eyes closed . Arms dangling like a Chrismas Peanuts Special.

All far far from the dance floor..

Maybe it was the bourbon.
