Bolt of Blue

Friday night was magical fun.

Premiere party for OK Go’s new video at LACMA… featuring pieces of the Rube Goldberg machine from the video, a DJ set by Tim, and an acoustic set by the band (minus Dan).

Half the party was on a rooftop terrace with the lights of Los Angeles all around. The short set was lovely and included my favorite “Last Leaf” and a cover of the Pixies’ “Wave of Mutilation”.

All that and I got to find out just how big a fan of LEGO a certain lead singer truly is.

Start of this month was full of Discworld goodness.

Start of October will be full of Lego goodness.

In between: amazing Flogging Molly show at the Greek, work, work, work, catching up on TV shows (Dexter, I’m not digging this Lila chick) or getting into new ones (thanks Flash Forward for giving me goosebumps), and lots of building, building, building.

I’m going to see James on Oct. 2 at the El Rey. I’m extremely tempted to purchase tickets to their shows in Anaheim and San Diego. I was freaking out (to put it lightly) when I first found out about the shows because I thought I’d miss all of them. But now it’s not looking likely that Remi and I will be in Seattle during that time. I’m sad though. It was like a lose lose situation. Because it means we’re going to miss BrickCon. It just doesn’t seem like it’s going to work out this year and it bums me out. I was really looking forward to it. Sigh.
