Date Night

Ken and I got Dulce's daughter, Erisel, to babysit and we had a rare night out together on Tuesday, going to see The Weakerthans at the 9:30 Club. As always, they rocked, and they particularly seemed to be enjoying the bigger venue (the last couple of times we've seen them, they were at the Black Cat, about half the size). Julia's actually been to a Weakerthans show, she just doesn't know it; last time they were here, I was 3 months pregnant. In utero exposure: Maybe that's why she's so clever?

Opening up for them were this horrible band called Raising the Fawn, who seemed determined not to play any melodies, and the New Amsterdams, who were much better.
