My notes from this show are brief and (surprise!) quite self-critical. "Djay Pro fucks up The Twilight Sad," I wrote; "I fucked up the segue too....The Wedding Present, as well! It seems to hate them....I messed up 'Minxed Driks.'" So it was a typical night out, it seems. Maybe a little bit rockist, listening back (again and again and again as I have put off writing this "entry"); Meat Beat Manifesto and Stratis don't really seem to fit but without them this show would not really be me. And it must be me because I am it.
On this day--maybe not that much was happening in the world. I think maybe this was the day someone did Pete Buttigieg cosplay, with the presidential candidate whipping a fake Christ on a cross. I have always found Easter LARPing to be the strangest and worst. Locally, the Squirrel Nut Zippers were in town and an alarming number of people my age were excited about this. Re-evaluating our tastes in the 90s seems to be something we were doing in the Spring of 2019. But--not sorry--I was right about the swing revival then and I am right about it now? How's that? I am sure the people who actually attended the gig on this night firmly believe the same thing about themselves. This must be the polarization that everyone is talking about.
