Cinco de Mayo done right!!
This past Friday (5/5/06), Household Names finally unleashed their second album, "Picture in my Head" with a more-than-Almost Fab fiesta! Sheboygan and Nathan Harlan (formerly of Endochine) opened up the evening at the Parish. I was manning the merch table for the early parts of the evening, but once I had some drinks, I abandoned my duties to schmooze with all the folks. But Kway and Jack did a commendable job filling in for me -- thanks girls.
Overall the show was fantastic -- and being buzzed always helps, right?! I had a great time catching up with my girls, Greg, Clay, Sean, Jenni, Chuck and Suzie Barker, Patrick, Jake, Matt, my dad's coworker all the way from Virginia and everyone else. The highlights of the evening: Jennifer LeDuke struggling to take down the pinata, dancing like Mick Jagger with Greg, chanting "Hey Jude" after they said they were gonna cover the Beatles' "Don't let me down", sliding off the merch bench, Clay in his skinny white pants, and just hanging out with my parents! I hope everyone had a blast like I did and got home before the storms rolled in. Here are some pics:
The band: Chris, Jason, Clay and CJ.
Don't you just love the festive set up?
Yeah, that's my hand with the red hairband. 
Playing "Don't Let me Down"
Clay became the pinatas.
Me, Kway, Ashley, and Lindsay at the merch table.
I did indeed buy the blue "Asshole James" shirt.
Greg and Meg. This guy is like my second brother (since I've known him as long as I've known my own brother!!) I had blast dancing like Mick Jagger with him.
Ditch Dallas, Greg! Austin is the place to be!
Babies - Kway, Meg, Jack, and Bun. We're all going to LA in September -- woo hoo!
Ash and Me.
My parents are the coolest -- they had a blast rocking out with us!
