Trifecta

The Ditty Bops @ Crust

Twice while chomping on mushroom pizza shoved halfway in my mouth, I turned to see their film crew pointing the camera directly at me. I really hope that footage doesn’t make it into the tour DVD.

So I also went to see the Ditty Bops play Old Town on consecutive nights, for a total of three performances in two days. Amanda, the taller of the two, actually recognized me after the second concert, and praised me for my faithful attendance. It was a strange, flattering feeling–”Somebody famous recognized me! Holy crap, am I turning into a groupie?

In other news, the collected concert-related merchandise purchased this weekend included:

1 EP, signed
4 locally grown organic peaches
2 locally baked organic brownies
2 locally brewed organic beers
1 locally farmed organic green tea
1 locally farmed organic fruit juice
2 bottles of chili sauce, made from locally grown organic chili peppers

There seems to be a recurring theme here.

    I think to qualify as a groupie, you need to see them in more than one city.

  3. Legs, yes. Armpits? Perhaps not.

    Interestingly, the arm pits are easily the more important of the two.

  5. Dude, you were recognized by a model, but I still don’t think you qualify as a groupie. Model = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanda_Barrett
