1. Sorry, folks, Project Runway and Top Model won out over Mogwai. However, I believe this decision was due to sheer exhaustion, poor health, and the amount of energy Mogwai requires to watch (and adequately enjoy).

Which brings me to #2...I'm sick. My throat hates me. My stomach hates me (but that is normal these days). I don't like it.

3. I saw Battles last night. My oh my. They are a good band.

4. Tonight is Alela Diane, Langhorne Slim, and The Builders and the Butchers.

5. Tomorrow night is Ratatat (yeah!!!!), Fleet Foxes, and Menomena.

The moral of the story: Music Fest Nortwest is awesome. Being sick is not awesome. I'm gonna put my head down and power through.

decisions, decisions.

Tonight I have to choose between the following:

The Season Premier of America's Next Top Model and the next episode of Project Runway (8 and 9 pm, respectively).

OR

Mogwai at the Roseland (its part of Music Fest NW, but more on that later).

Why is life so cruel?

In any case, Mogwai wins. Live performances (that will make your ears bleed) > television shows. But they just hardly won out. My dedication to Project Runway runs deep. Oh the woes. I shouldn't have to make these kinds of choices.
