I found an interesting post today on sddialedin.com.

The day after my anniversary show, my wi-fi quit on me. I planned on writing, but instead had to catch up with real life…like cleaning my house, doing laundry, running errands, job hunting, and realistically, catching up on my shows, being a hermit, listening to music, sorting through e-mail and trying to figure out how I’m so behind on everything when I have so much time on my hands.

Last night’s San Diego Music Awards was a helluva good time and I can only imagine the after parties at the casino and Ayres Inn. Last year was bumping but this time I planned poorly and didn’t take the following day off, so there was restricted partying for this girl.
Anyway, I was twittering the winners all night long, but I have the full list after the jump. Congratulations to all the winners and nominees. The awards were fun, even though the mosh pit during As I Lay Dying was a bit, um, retarded? Yeah, Dorks, put your stupid shirts back on.
I know there are very mixed opinions about the awards (they rule/are stupid, they’re fun/suck, they do/don’t help local music, they do/don’t help local musicians)but I like them. I think a couple good tweaks would be to limit people to one vote or at […]
