Getting Better all the Time

Last night my friend/guru Paul Pugliese informed me of the fact that Chapel Hill, North Carolina, gets all the indie acts that would travel through, say, New York City or Washington D.C.

"Why?" I asked, wondering what on earth would bring, say, Wilco or Peter Bjorn and John to North Carolina.

Paul's response was the following:

Cat's Cradle.

From now until September Cat's Cradle will be seeing acts such as the aforementioned Wilco and Peter Bjorn and John, along with Wolf Parade, and the Fiery Furnaces. Among many others. A lot of these groups will be playing before I arrive but Peter Bjorn and John are playing September 11th and not even the burning flames of hell could keep me from that concert. Who loves Peter Bjorn and John? I do, bitches.

Chapel Hill's coolness factor is increasing exponentially as the days go by, and along with it my excitement at getting to live there for the next five or six years.

This is the part where I do a dance and flail my hands about. I'll talk to you when recovering from the afterglow.
