So if you're looking for something fun to do tonight you should head on down to Granby St. in downtown Norfolk and go to Fahrenheit at 10pm and see JoAnna Lynne (and Heather Jeanette) rock the house. Well, acoustically soft rock it. So yeah, head out there. Travis got back from his week-long excursion with The Influence. He was tired and glad he did it, but he's glad he's not a musician, cause that life's not really for him. We had an interesting talk about the difference in immediacy of adulation and rejection between being a musician and a filmmakker. I know he filmed a lot of stuff on the trip, but a couple of things are already up at the band's Flutoob site on Youtube. One is a an acoustic performance of "The Following" that they did for the ZETA sorority in Greenville, North Carolina, and the other is a neat commercial they did for their appearance at Jack Rabbit's on the 26th. On a non-musical note, The State of the Union Address was last night and I just can't help but feel that this is a completely outdated and vestigial event. This made sense years ago, but with the advent of twenty-four hour news channels and the internet, we get the state of the union fed to us constantly. The state of the union address just ends up being another platform for partisan rhetoric and I don't understand why we still revere it and have is showing on fifteen different channels. Is anyone really learning anthing from it that they couldn't have learned from ten other sources weeks or even months before?
