Pictures Taken With A Potato At The Mustard Plug Concert Tonight



Went to the Mustard Plug show at the Gothic tonight, Hung out with Gordon, Christie, & Amyjeen. Missed the opener, All Waffle Trick, because I had to close, but $15.00 for three bands and one of them is Mustard Plug? Awesome deal!


The second opening act, The Beeves, a very raw, two days out of the garage, power trio with power to spare - just need a bit of seasoning.

   
Third on the bill, Younger Than Neil, an 8 piece combo. The lead vocalist had mod ska dancing down like nobody's business - though there were a few instances when he just appreared...epileptic.

                              
The Headliner, Mustard Plug, straight outta Grand Rapids, tore it up as usual - though I was a bit distracted for much of their set. But the Fugazi cover - yeah, they blasted out a Fugazi cover, and Gordon and I pretty much went catatonic hearing it.

#203 Crush

I would try for you
I would try for you
I'd be happy just to have you along for the ride
To hear you sing along to the same songs as I

I will fly with you
I will fly with you
I will get round-trip tickets to someplace near
And even spring for the beer

I will play with you
I will play with you
I will put quarters in any video game and be your player two
But you better be ready to duel

See something that reminds me of you every once in awhile
Hear a song I know you like further down the dial
You might just get used to me
And possibly might want to stick around

I will most likely yearn for you
At least strongly desire you
I might even call you up instead of text
Lord knows what I'd do next

I will be sly for you
Work an off day or even a late shift for you
I will wear T-shirts with screen prints on them for you to see
You're just as kooky as me

Imitate a comedian that gets you laughing
Quote a movie line I know that will get you thinking
You might just get used to me
And possibly might want to stick around

I will make toast for you
I will wait in line for a movie with you 
I will help you with the dishes...sometimes
I will play bar trivia with you
I will share my fries with you
I will stifle my desire to watch baseball for you
(but not if it's a play-off game or the World Series)
I'll sleep in with you
(unless I have to work)
To be going out with you
To be hanging out with you
'Cause I have nothing else better to do
Than just spend time with you
I would try for you

Just Deal With It

Some people don't want to go home because
                                                           home is just a                                                                            heartache
                                                           Or
                                                           they don't want to deal                                                              with the crap
                                                           Or
                                                           the disappointment is                                                                too much
                                                           Or
                                                           they don't want to be                                                                alone 
                                                           Or
                                                           it's just too damn 
                                           risky
                                                           Or
                                                           they have no idea                                                                      where home is
