muckefuckIncidentally, this has been my week for meeting Irish people: At Big Chicks Monday night, a foaf introduced me to a native of Lisburn who's fresh from a job teaching philosophy at the same place where ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
monshu studied it, my sister's alma mater of Saint Louis University. Then last night at Jackhammer, I met a poor lost lass also from the Greater Belfast area and helped her find her way to a good dyke bar in the neighbourhood. (Hmm...met them both in pubs, imagine that! And the same foaf was there last night; what does that say?)
Incidentally, the Flesh Hungry Dog Show was well worth it, though due largely to an incredible performance by The Joans. How can you not love a band that not only references the movie Trog but builds an entire song--"Do the Trog"--around it? ("They were doin' the Trog / A million years ago!") If I can figure where in hell The Mutiny is, I may find myself at their next show three weeks from now. (Cub chasers! Check out their adorable little peanut of a drummer, keeping in mind that he's about 100 times cuter IRL. I think I scared him with my enthusiasm, but he was much too polite to show it. I must need lessons frome_ticket in how to comport myself around microcelebrities.)
