Just a Gwai Lo - fun within prescribed limits

It's not even clear to me where I first heard about her, but after watching the video for M.I.A.'s "Galang", I wanted to know more about her, which is to say have sex with her. After linking to several articles about her (28 and counting), acquiring her album through legitimate means, acquiring a mixtape featuring her through illegitimate means, I found out she was touring North America. She plays with LCD Soundsystem this upcoming Tuesday, and I've bought tickets. The concert, which I see I am not the only person who has publicly declared their attendance, will be what a friend calls Vancouver's first All Hype All Hipster Convention of the Summer.

So note the plural: I have tickets. I buy two tickets to concerts nowadays, in the hopes that in between purchase and attendance I can convince someone to move a little outside of their music comfort zone—I could use a little shakeup, myself, actually—to come with me and make fun of the hipsters and indie kids. (Actually, I like the indie kids. I'm just not one of 'em.) In the spirit of "my weblog is my social networking software", I'd like to invite someone to come with me, though they would need to know that I usually hang out at the back, my being 6'3", in order avoid people coming up to me and saying "excuse me, do you mind moving over a bit?". Drop me a line if you're interested: the ticket's on me. If you want to leave a comment and want people to know publicly that I picked someone else, then by all means, but that sounds like something better communicated privately.
