Copped some free duckets to the Bison's home opener Friday night. It was beautiful weather all week, then Friday comes along and it rains the whole night wtf. Can't catch a break in this town jeepers. Then again starting lefty Jeremy Sowers couldn't either. While the Mud Hens and Jeremy Johnson made some nice plays in the outfield and scored 4 runs Sowers didn't get much help from the defense and no help from the offense. Three solo dingers were all Toledo needed to pull out the W.
On the bright side, I did get a foul ball minutes after I just let a ball slip right through my hands. It was either the beer in my left hand or the wet ball coming at me and I decided to have my cake and eat it too. I kept the beer, thank god, but the ball slipped right over to some punk kid. The worst part was some dude yelling "you're no athlete" to me after I missed the ball. Well at least I got my redemption on the next one.
After the game I went to see the band the Dodos at Mohawk place. Can't complain about $7 cover and $2 PBR and OV. Normally I don't like to see bands when not familiar with their music but I made an exception.
Of course the show started late, they didn't take stage till something like 12:30, but surprisingly they were pretty good. Almost, and I stress almost, like a poor man's version of Radiohead. They had no bassist, two drummers and a guitarist. They used electric and acoustic guitars.
The use of noise and echoing was also pretty interesting. If I do say so my self, check out their new album, The Dodos - Visiter out now. It is their second full length LP.
