Pop-up cock blocker

So I wrote a nice lengthy entry this morning at work about my previous evening, and when I clicked on the spell-checker, whatever pop-up window it was supposed to bring up was blocked by Internet Explorer. I clicked on "temporarily allow pop-ups for this site" and then it erased my entry and sent me back to a blank blog entry page. Shit! I was pissed, then I remembered not too many people actually read this thing anyway, so I let it go. So here's a shorter version, because I don't feel like trying to re-write all the stuff I came up with this morning.

I stopped into Record & Tape Traders in Towson after work to pick up Tea Leaf Green's new album, Taught to be Proud, but they didn't have it. What I did find, though, was the North Mississippi Allstars playing an acoustic set in the corner of the store with about 30 onlookers marveling at seeing such an amazing performance in such an intimate setting. I was blown away, and they sounded great. They were playing at the 8x10 Club later that night, but I was headed to the Recher for ALO and Galactic.

There was a pretty sparse crowd at the Recher for the start of ALO's set- more room for me to dance! Their sound was crystal clear and they played two of my favorite songs- Barbecue and The Walls of Jericho. I couldn't be happier with their show.

The crowd filled in by the time Galactic took the stage, although the place was still only about half full. I am less familiar with Galactic's work, but was very impressed. Their sound was powerfully funky and they put on a very professional show. I'll definitely be seeing them again.

If anyone say the Allstars at 8x10, let me know how it was.

p.s.- just picked up Taught to be Proud at Soundgarden (although I think I got their last copy)- it's fantastic! Get it!
