October 27 2006: Brianna Lane – Bishop’s Lounge, Northampton MA

Adam and Sairi were going to see this show and I was tired of putting off homework so I joined them. But I hadn’t had much to eat so two beers spun my head around so much that I wasn’t able to listen too closely. But I liked what I heard.

The most interesting moment of the night was when Brianna went into “Learn to Fly” by the Foo Fighters and I didn’t realize who had written it but simply recalled it as a pretty good tune from my younger days. So I asked Adam and he told me who it was. And I sat there and my head spun and I thought about the long-gone days when I could find beauty in meaningless arena rock anthems. And the fact of the matter is that I can’t deny it’s a good song.

And after the show Adam and Sairi and their friend Jessica and Brianna and I went to the Whatley Diner and I was able to eat hashbrowns for the second time in one day.
