We made it back home safely from the concert, and it was quite fun. The opening act was Attitude Adjustment, some hardcore/punk band that wasn't very interesting, but Anvil was good! I picked up a new t-shirt and had it signed by the band, which in retrospect is a bit whack. Now I can't wear it since I won't want to wash off the autographs.
Later today, we are finally going to see The Book of Eli and hopefully stop by the Apple store to get my ipod fixed. Listening to the radio sucks.

The new digital camera I got for Christmas is fully charged, ready and waiting to snap tons of photos at the
Anvil concert tonight! Been listening to the latest album, "This is Thirteen," and there are quite a few songs on there that we dig.
We also got a news flash earlier this week that Faith No More is coming to town. Tickets going on sale tomorrow, so hopefully we can get score some tickets for that as well. Haven't seen FNM in a really long time, and they were one of my favorite bands back in their prime, so I'm really looking forward to that.
