Be content with your life--it may not get any better

I don't have anything really insightful or anything to say here; I basically just wanted to note that I saw Johnny Dowd in concert on Monday, which was pretty durned awesome. It was a tiny establishment, which is too bad insofar as he really ought to be more popular (I think he's bigger in Europe), but good insofar as I was sitting no more than six feet from the stage, and I got to meet him afterwards and get him to sign a CD. Amazingly, out of a set of fourteen songs, only three were from previous albums; I may not have been such a huge fan of his last one, but if these are any indication, the next one oughta pretty well rock.
