And what a birthday it was! I turned 21 yesterday. For the party, my dad flew out from Boston to Tucson to hang out and celebrate with me and my friends. Tuesday night he took us out to the nicest resteraunt in Tucson, Flemmings, where he got 500 dollars worth of steak, lamb, dessert, appetizers, wine (4 bottles), and beer. Fucking great. Yesterday I had class but after he took me to Guitar Center for a present and got me a new peavey amp (75 watts), and some effects pedals (a new wah wah pedal and a feedback compressor), and then of course all the cables neccesary to run everything together. I'm now up to two amps and 5 pedals on my setup, shit is getting LOUUUUDDDDD. Then we went to the record store where I got a new Black Flag and a new Crass tee and he got a Discharge tee. Then we went to the headshop and I got a new bong. Then we hit the bars finally, got stoned, went to Hotel Congress where POLYSICS were playing. It was just my dad and one friend, but Polysics were playing great. Such fucking energy, I couldn't believe it. I was also surprised by the volume. It was very fucking loud, and Polysics are by no means a band I would consider extreme. They really are the a wierder, more lourd, more Japanese Devo. There were some songs I didn't recognize (prolly new record, havn't heard it), but they played classics too, (the place was nuts during "TEI! TEI! TEI). Great B-Day.
