So last night I did something decidedly unHeatherish. I went to The Church to see Paul Oakenfold. It was unHeatherish for me to:
- Go to a club.
- Pay a cover. A $25 cover at that.
- On a weeknight.
It was not unHeatherish for me to:
- REALLY want to see Paul Oakenfold.
- Dance.
- Be Designated Driver.
- Wish I brought ear plugs.
- Freak out and have a panic attack at the sheer number of people I didn't know shoved up against me and spend most of the night on the outdoor patio upstairs listening to him DJ on the speakers from downstairs.
Geez, though, I am getting old. But I love Paul Oakenfold... I don't even really do trance, but I think it's a testament to how good he is that I like him. The thing about trance is that it just musically stagnates for like, freakin-ever... but he still gets the trance aspects with musical momentum. Current favorite song? "The Silence 2000 (DJ TiestoRemix)" f/Sarah McLachlan.
unrelated: as a full-time student who works 30 hours a week and needs about another 30 hours a week to do homework and reading and stuff, if I'm in a class project group with you, don't ask if I can take some time off of work to meet and plan so that IT DOESN'T INTERFERE WITH YOUR FOOTBALL WATCHING ON SUNDAY.

I hate football too.
Oooh, Silence is good but the song rocking my socks off right now is "Call on Me" by Eric Prydz (Just once can a trance guy have a normal name? Is that too much to ask?) from the Ultra:iTrance2 disc on iTunes.
I saw Oakenfold a few years back shortly after Bunkka (Bunka?) came out. How was he last night?
