teenage politics


hey,

i went to Salt Lake City last night to see MXPX! it was an awesome show! i saw them back in 2003 at the Irvine Spectrum in California and they still sound awesome live. i need to catch up on their newer music. they only played a couple songs from the album Teenage Politics, and only a couple from The Ever Passing Moment, the only albums i know pretty well. But, their other songs were just as good if not better than the songs from the albums i know. i shook hands with the singer and the drummer-that's 2/3 of the band! but the sand news is that i already washed my hands, so yeah.



the guitarist and the drummer




i think this is when they played one of the songs i know

here's jessica and me, the only mxpx fans from among our friends, with the singer/bass player. i was totally feeling tattoo-less. the other band that played was lagwagon. i liked them in high school, but they didn't play a good show. we left a little early because we didn't think listening to them play was worth becoming a little more deaf.

so if mxpx is ever going to play near you i encourage you to see them play. and if you ever see them at The Venue in SLC, there's really good tacos that only cost a dollar each across the street.
