a laragitara/mrs. robinson moment...

i am such a groupie. jeff michaels of even elroy sent me an email!!!

JM to LG:

hi,
 
just wanted to say it was great meeting you on your birthday at the makeout room.  we've added you to our mailing list but before we sent anything out i wanted to personally invite you to our next show which is at slims in sf on friday, august 19th.  this is our full band and will be completely different than the acoustic performance you saw.
 
anyway, hopefully you can make it and hopefully bring along, uh, 50 people or so.  ;)
 
talk soon!

Hello Jeff (Jeff Michaels of Even Elroy),

Thanks so much for the invite! How cool is this! I get
personally invited by Jeff (Jeff Michaels of Even
Elroy!!) I would love to see you guys this Friday at
Slim's. I've already marked it in my calendar few
weeks ago when I noticed the lineup in the Slim's
website. I'd love to experience Even Elroy full
force. I am really enjoying your latest CD. My
favorite song is "going back to bed". I think it's a
song about living a more zen lifestyle... and a catchy
tune too!

I'm not sure if I can round up 50 people, but at least
all you'll need to find is just 49 more.

Your New Fan


ps - so, is Tom Luce like the Yoda of the Bay Area
music scene? i sense his influence on quite a few
bands, specially when i'm eating peanut butter
sandwiches. (i'm a Luce fan too).

i thought i was really clever and witty. then i realized i confused my dates....

LG to JM

hi again,

how embarrassing, I mixed up my Fridays. i love free
anything. so i'll definitely make an effort to see you
guys at the Canvas this Friday (i knew the Slim's
thing is NEXT Friday).

smooth eh? note to self, it is seldom a good idea to send giddy emails after having consumed a few cocktails late at night...
