january 19th. the house of blues. chillin with the mouse, social d., and mad expensive drinks. i must say mike ness is a clever guy. the show was awesome. energy was at an all time high and the crowd was totally into it. these days people seem to post up at shows holding their beers. no expression. maybe a wiggle and an unenthusiastic "hell yeah" here and there. fortunately, this was not the case last night. lots of sweat and ass kicking. it was nice. social distortion wins a big two thumbs up the ass from me for a thrilling experience. good times.
