DCLX...

So, DCLX was awesome as expected. I had a fabulous time hanging out with friends old and new. I missed my hetero life mate considerably and I can only surmise by the sheer amount of people that came up to me to ask where she was that a lot of other people felt the same way. I did my best to keep her in the loop for the weekend. Calling her at key points of the weekend like when I lost my BSV for 2006 (I have never done a body shot of Dave ever, this year, this month, this week... today??). At the Friday late night BMJB played "Sister Kate" and I wanted to cry when I heard it, however I danced instead. I was happy to learn later, that Gail called Kate and played it for her over the phone.

But aside from missing my other half it was a spectacular event. I still can't get over how amazing the music was this weekend. The BMJB were as close to perfection as possible. I grew up dancing to them and their music alone is a major reason why I still love dancing. Their zeal for the music is so outstanding and inspiring that they have set the standard for me for live music. Friday late night and Saturday with the George Gee Orchestra was unfreakingbelievable. I haven't heard GGO before but now I will make it a priority. The energy those two bands produced was inspiring. If people had started to fly, I don't think I would have been too surprised. Campus 5 on Friday were also superb. I think I might have freaked some people out by how insaneosuperhappyandhyper(andsortofdrunk) that I was the whole weekend, but really awesome music does that to me, I digress.

I don't think I danced as much as I should have, but I had some outstanding dances and the pain in my back proves how out of practice I am. But yay for dances with people who make me feel like someday I could be really really really good at it.
