I am easily effected emotionally




The other day I saw Broken Social Scene for the fourth time, and it was pretty awesome. They opened with Late Night Bedroom Rock for Missionaries, and Shampoo Suicide, which they never play, and Andrew Whiteman (Apostle of Hustle) was there, and he's gotta be one of the most entertaining guitarists to watch.

One of the best parts of the show was when Charles Spearin (Do Make Say Think) played this thing he's been working on called "The Happines Project," where he interviewed his neighbors on the subject of happiness, and tried to play the melody of their voices. The part we heard was from an older lady named Ms. Norris (notacat), and it was pretty delightful.

They played KC Accidental, and this really cute girl a couple of feet away from me started crying. You're right, that's like some horrible Lou Taylor Pucci, Zach Braff "vaguely outsiderish kid with relatively good taste in music comes of age" cliche, but whateva. It seemed genuine enough at the time, and if there was ever a Broken Social Scene song that would make me cry, it'd probably be that one.
