Last night topped Friday night. Craig, Cory, the Tomlimsons and their significant others, Emma, and several of Craigs friends who were really fun, and myself, all went to Evolution, a Journey cover band at BB King's house of blues in times square. We watched the journey DVD all day to get outselves pumped up and ended up being hesitant because we were afraid Evolution might not rock us like the real Journey. We were pleasantly surprised.
First, the singer WAS Steve Perry, DNA tests confirmed it. The only way around it was it could have been a clone. This guy wore the exact same clothes as Steve Perry did on one of his tours, his mannerisms were IDENTICAL in every way, the way he danced/walked, the way he held the microphone, the way he sang. His physical appearance and voice were identical. That can't just be coincidence. Who wakes up one day looks in the mirror and says you know I look an awful lot like steve perry. Then sings and says holy shit I sound just like steve perry. Then goes through the day and says I act just like steve perry.......the only thing left to do is join a journey cover band. NO ONE, that's who. That's why it WAS steve perry. Don't even try to F-ing tell me otherwise.
So, anyway, we screamed our heads off at that and it was great. Then we went to Joshua Tree on the east side and thats always the best time. it doesn't matter that it's packed so tight you can barely move (like the fish co dance floor only tighter) the music is too good you still have a great time. And if you stay pretty late, like past 2 or 3 it starts to clear up and you can dance your face off to the best songs of the 80s. How does it get better you say? You booze your face off too.....that's how.
We woke up at 2pm again this "morning" and again not that hung over, little more than yesterday, but not much. We went on another nice 5miler only this time we ran on the bike path along the Hudson which was pretty nice...except for looking at Dirty Jerz across the water. It started off a little cold but ended up very nice and it was another great run of conversation. Leave it to Brown XC guys to always have great conversations on runs. I skipped the abbage and push ups todays, was far too hungry when we got back so we hit up the deli for more samiches and gatorade and I got some doritos too.....so good.
Tonight I'm going to the Will Ferrell Funny or Die comedy show again only this time its at Radio City Music Hall instead of BC. It is going to kick so much ass.
Quote of the Day:
After a dude on rollerblades kind of whizzes by us and says something to the effect of get out of the way:
Cory "What is the hardest part about being a rollerblader?"
Me "What?"
Cory "Having to tell your parents that you're gay"
Classic
