ach...this is what i get for posting while i'm at work doing six other
things at the same time. what i meant was, the people screaming after the
"fuck you" in the chorus really annoy me. i dunno, it just seems kind of
gratuitous -> ani says "fuck," everybody screams and yells. whatever. i
just went to my first ani concert last night, and i'm gonna write up a
quick review for this guy who's putting together a web scrapbook of her
summer tour dates, so i'll post it here when i get it done.

it just seems to plod too much. i think it should sound a bit more
lively...not bright and cheerful or anything, but not so mopey either. it
just doesn't sound very "joyful" to me.

errr, which classic quote is that? "i killed a cockroach so big/it left a
puddle of pus on my wall"? :) i haven't seen any lines from fire door in
anyone's sig recently. i do quite like the opening line, though.

well, i *never* heard her on the radio while i was in the UK. then again,
i tended to avoid the radio, so i dunno. none of my british friends had
ever heard of her.[1] i'm afraid you just missed a couple of (reportedly)
pretty damn cool ani shows in the UK, though. i would have *loved* to see
her there - since she has such a small british fan base, a couple of the
shows were relatively small and intimate. there's some reviews at:

well, now that my cd-rom drive is toast, i can't access any of the linux
discs my bf brought home. i had it installed, but we fucked up on
something and started to re-do the installation, only to remember that
we'd have to swap cd-rom drives for it to work...so i left it
half-re-installed. *sigh*
