Satisfaction

The Boyscout picked me up on Saturday night for a lovely date.

First stop: Fatty's.  I highly recommend this restaurant and the sour cherry sparking wine thingy that I drank.  Delicious.  http://www.fattyscafe.com/

Then it was off to downtown LA for a little Club Satisfaction.  http://www.myspace.com/satisfactionclub

The parking was a nightmare because some kids were having a RAVE nearby.  As we were trying to park we kept seeing groups of teenagers walking by with glo-sticks and really bad club gear milling about.  You know what I'm talking about.  Girls in practically their underwear and guys in tacky shirts. 

Once we found our parking spot and headed in to the Bordello, http://bordellobar.com , all was dandy.  The music was good, the drink was good, and the dancing was fun.  My Boyscout knows how to dance.  Does yours?

New Music

I was introduced to the Kaiser Chiefs via a mix CD.  Now I am obsessed.  I just picked up "Your's Truly, Angry Mob" and now must head down to Amoeba to get the rest of their catalog.
