For some strange reason (well not strange, the sun was out and the people from the City were destroying the sidewalk outside the house) I woke up early.  I ended up going back to my house to check on things and mow the lawn.

I made it back to the house by noon and M and I rode downtown with empty stomachs (we were hoping to find free breakfast).  We were running a little late so we went directly to the Spin Party.  UV Vodka was a sponsor.  The beverage of choice for the day was UV Pink Lemonade with a splash of soda water and lime.

We got to the party in time to see Rogue Wave.  We found a good spot up front (near the VIP food that we weren’t supposed to touch).  After Rogue Wave we grabbed another beverage and M managed to procure food.    After our snack we moved back to the front to get a spot front and center for Miike Snow. They played a good set,  for those of you who don’t know the band, think about what the Cut Copy remixes sound like, but better.

By this time M and a were feeling good.  We grabbed more drinks and found a safe spot to watch Fucked Up (we did not want to end up in the mud wallow/mosh pit).  We debated leaving to check out another show and decided to keep drinking vodka and stay for Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings.  I was impressed (and it was not the vodka).  Sharon was on fire and put on a “James Brown cape-worthy” performance [this lady does not need autotune].

This is where things get a little fuzzy (we were going the route of an LA housewife minus the prescription drugs).  I remember Twittering the following, ” Vodka. Thank you for making me impaired but not hungry.” It was around this time that M and I headed to the restroom and managed to get some free shirts and give  someone some whiskey from the flask.  We grabbed more booze and went back to the “safe area” to watch Hole.  By this time I think M and I were 7 to 5 on drinks.  As the day wore on, the drinks got stronger (this is what happens when you tip your bartenders).  We made some friends, took some photos, and rocked out to the hot mess that is Courtney Love [BTW. She introduced a new phrase, Shitfuckers].

After the show, we went to Sidebar to use their clean bathrooms.  M ordered another drink and we stuck around and listened to some random punk band.  By this time I was starving.  I had 2 pieces of white bread, some coleslaw so far.  I snacked on some sesame crackers that were stashed at the bottom of my bag (we always have snacks).

M and I decided it was time to head to Jackalope for a mountain of fries (and burgers). We were half finished when the Jew showed up. We finished our food and made the executive decision to call it a night and cab it home (we left the bikes downtown).

Cost for the day: ??? tips for bartender, ~$15 at Jackalope (per person), $8 cab

Free: I think I had at least 5 vodka sodas (it was vodka and orange juice towards the end.
