all sparks will burn out in the end 3:00pm 10/20/2005  

V and i (along with G and N) have been watching that new show My Name is Earl for its first few weeks. It's not bad, usually good for a few laughs. What's kind of annoying is that each show spends at least 5-10 minutes giving a kind of Zen 101 lecture on karma.

However, i had a kind of karma lesson of my own today. V and i have been eagerly awaiting next Tuesday's Bauhaus show at the Warfield for a month or two now. We pounced when tickets were released (we were in Cologne at the time, searching for tickets at an internet café), and managed to get seats in the front row of the balcony, prime real estate at the Warfield. However, perusing my calendar at work i found i have a faculty meeting next Tuesday evening as well, ending somewhere around 8pm, right when the show is set to begin. Dammit. I should be a good boy and go to my meeting, so it looks like no Bauhaus for me. So i had a look at the Warfield/Fillmore site to see if maybe (please?) Bauhaus had an opening band. Apparently not ... but ... what's this? ... Bauhaus are playing the Fillmore on Halloween? When the hell did this happen? I quickly jaunted over to Ticketmaster, found that was indeed the case, and more surprisingly was able to get tickets. Miss one show, go to another better show. Karma.
