EARTH FEST 2010

i'm posting about Earth Fest because i'm in shock.

the last time we spoke, i said that they were announcing the band line-up TODAY (earth day). Earth Fest itself isn't for another month.

here is the band lineup in the order they appear on the website:

Collective Soul
Gin Blossoms
Crash Kings
Marcy Playground


now, i don't know what i was thinking. but, i guess i was assuming that the bands playing would be small, up and coming bands, like Crash Kings. BUT NO. um, these bands are super famous. and Crash Kings are in the middle of it all.

their name even has the same size font as the others. and it's not even last! SAME SIZE FONT! that's a huge improvement.

Collective Soul has that great music video with the guy about to jump off the building. and there are pigeons? 'World I Know.' i like that song.

and Gin Blossoms have that great song, 'Til I Hear it From You.' great song.

and Marcy Playground have that one song, 'Sex and Candy.' i'm sure they have other songs too.

but i'm really impressed. and shocked. at first i was like, "wait....what are Crash Kings doing there amongst all the super famous bands?" and then i thought, "oooohhhhh yeeaaahhhh....i guess they're kind of a super famous band too....."

ANYWAYS. i'm super excited for Earth Fest. i'm trying to peer pressure my mom and Kara into coming. AND! my dad will be back from Canada visiting that week. so he can come too!

anybody else want to meet up at Earth Fest?!!? it's gonna be super fun! and super crowded!!! it says it usually attracts around 125,000 people. that's a big crowd.

ok, IF I am having a hard time believing that Crash Kings are in the lineup of those super famous bands - i can't even imagine what Jason, Mike and Tony are thinking.

alright. it's 2:20pm. either wednesday or thursday. no, it's thursday. not much planned for today. gonna go downstairs later and sort through more books.

in 6 boxes yesterday we had 37 copies of Goodnight Moon. i have four more boxes to do today. only 7 copies of The Runaway Bunny yesterday. i'm hoping for more today. although, there are like, 20 more boxes of books down in the basement that i'm sure have more copies.

watched the Michael Moore documentary last night. after like, 2 minutes i was almost in tears. and then like, 20 minutes later i almost had to shut it off because it was so scary. the part when he's talking about how the United States went downhill very quickly with the election of Ronald Reagan. and then it's all the line graphs set against Carmina Burana. MAN. that was a scary part.

i'll talk more about it later.

UNTIL THEN, have a great afternoon. a great Earth Day. Happy Earth Day.
