Titus Again (at the Black Cat w/ Lucero)

So of my 17 posts, 3 are about Titus. I can't help it. They're so fucking good. And of all the bands they could play with, they picked a damn good one. Lucero is a group that I've never really gotten into, but they seem to always be in the peripheral of my musical senses. Not that that makes any sense whatsoever. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I've never gone on a binge on which all I do is listen to Lucero for 2 days or a week, but I've always listened to them, 5-6 plays a week or so. Anyway, Titus is just going to blow everyone's mind. I'll be surprised if they don't exceed my expectations, which is surprising because they are really fucking high.

BEST O'S GAME EVER!!!!!!

Friday night, best Orioles game ever. O's won 5-4, after some serious tension in the top of the ninth, and we saw a fight - firstly, it started when one guy threw another about four rows down and five seats to the right. Then, the second guy's friend punched the first guy right in the face, which resulted in immediate retalliation. At one point, the first guy was choking the third guy, so someone pulled them apart, and the first guy turned around like the fight was over. The third guy got up slowly, drew back his arm, and whacked the first guy as hard as he possibly could in the back of the head, and the whole thing started back up again. Later, we discovered that all black people say pluck instead of flick. I'm not really sure how it came up, but we asked 4 random black guys out on the street and each one said pluck (when we flicked a 5th guy, he tried to tell us we were flashing him a gang sign). We then continued the experiment with 4 white people, who all said flick. Then, quite randomly and unexpectedly, a half-black woman stepped up and said she uses them interchangably. There is no way that's just a coincidence.
