Blue Cheer were fucking awesome. If you have the means, and many of you do, as they’ve got a lot of tour left to play, I strongly recommend you check them out. It’s not very often that you get to see a band as historically significant (and still viable, not to mention LOUD) as they are play a small club for 15 bucks. If you don’t know who Blue Cheer are and their MySpace page doesn’t tell enough of the story, head to Wikipedia for a more thorough (but still slightly incomplete) overview.

After meeting up with a few of the regulars at the Blue Cheer show, we headed over to Mr. Black (a complete and total 180 from the previous hour-and-a-half’s festivities) for something called “Plant This” where a few more regulars had congregated. Moved it on the floor for a bit as the music was at least passable (even if it clearly wasn’t Blue Fucking Cheer), though one of the DJs broke both my heart and the heart of a lovely girl named Amanda by fading out Shannon’s “Let The Music Play” too soon. This also rendered me completely unable to socialize, so I wandered off in a stupor (like that’s a fucking stretch for me) and probably totally gave poor Amanda a complex, which is a shame because she really was delightful. Hopefully the promoters will have another go at the event and she’ll show up, so I can attempt to be just slightly less socially retarded.
