glad to know i'm not the only one who heard something "kitten-esque" going on there. i was ready to lose my mind (i did anyway, but kitten would've been a real treat).

this was my first UW show (fan for 13 years and counting) and i could tell even from hearing/watching live recordings that karl was not his usual self at the start. once i saw a smile from him during i think it was two months off it was like a sign things were going to be alright. i do have to say that this is the first time i've ever been at a live gig (for any band) where i completely forgot i was watching a band perform music. an unusual sense of calm and belonging settled in about halfway through the performance and now that the show is over it feels like i went to an amazing place that hopefully someday i can return to, and not just a simple show with some boys of essex twiddling knobs and strumming guitars.

the born slippy performance nuxx was out of this world. met some awesome fans in line (not sure if any of you were dirts) and the crowd was great. amazing show all around.
