The Panic Channel @ the Dragonfly

After work last night I went down to the Dragonfly & caught most of a short acoustic set by The Panic Channel. It was a benefit show & the place was packed. Rather than fight the crowd to get close, I resorted to holding my camera over my head to try & get a few photos. I'll probably trash the rest, but I really like this one of Steve Isaacs.


Saw a few friends there & it was a good time. Tried to go outside for a cigarette after & was stopped by security asking me if I had a wristband. Huh? Then I saw Dave Navarro standing a few feet outside the door. Okay. Security tells me to go around & come outside from the other door. Whatever. Make my way through the club & as I'm nearing the other doorway, there's Dave standing there again. No hassles from security this time. It's a good thing, or I may have had to resort to grabbing the cigarette from Navarro's hand. Don't try & keep a girl separated from her nicotine, dammit!


Ms. X and I wandered down the street afterwards to a little corner bar she had spotted on her way to the Dragonfly & I got her a birthday drink. The place is too cute. Dark booths with fuzzy pillows, a big stage area, large outdoor patio, and friendly patrons & staff. It was karaoke night & although you will NEVER see Ms. X nor I onstage singing, we had a lot of fun watching everyone else.

Found a poor, dirty, abandoned Elmo on the sidewalk & Ms. X gave him a good kick. Poor Elmo.
