the kids come out

went to see what nights are like in portland.



saw holy sons





and scout niblett


towards the end she broke out into no scrubs (the TLC one)
and "we're all gonna die...." (that song that jens lekman covered,
also one that you wouldn't want to play if you're in a car i'm driving)

to be quite honest, the music was sleepy and so-so,
but the kids were into it--they seemed grateful.
