i kind of feel like tooting my own horn right now.


i was playing a show on friday, and a particularly rowdy bunch at the front seemed to be enjoying themselves verily.

me - "this next one will be our last song."


rowdy dudes - "ENCORE!"


me - "well, we're about to play another song, so it is an encore, guys.... *pause*... HA! I BOGGED YOU DOWN IN SEMANTICS!"


honestly, i'm just impressed with myself that after two pints and my usual inability to string together proper non-awkward statements on stage (i have been known to say such things as "masturbating monkeys...always a good time." with little to no reason) that i managed to use such a fancy word as 'semantics' in a correct context.


go me.
