Chik-a-fila for lunch makes me happy :)

SO... listen to my day...
it was cool. I went to Disneyland. No big deal... in fact it began horibbly when Erick and I discovered "Mickey and Friends" parking was closed and were being slowly piped to the Anaheim convention center all the way down the street, then as we were walking in to the parking lot of Timon and Pumba to catch the tram into the park, we read a sign saying that Disneyland was full... we crossed our fingers hoping to get in. It wasn't like we needed to buy tickets. Anyway... after all of this frustration... and after waiting like an hour for rides that we normally wait about 10 minutes for we were slowly walking over to ride Buzz lightyear. I was, in the back of my mind, hoping to go home after this ride. It was a long day. I was tired and I didn't really want to wait in any more lines. We took the long way and passed through an eating area which we never eat at and took a short cut through "Club Buzz" or maybe better known as the Tomorrowland Terrace. I figured it was another cover band that always plays there... when Erick was "who is that? those fools look familar". And it was then I looked up to discover SUBURBAN LEGENDS!!!! I was like, "Isn't that Suburban Legends??" and we looked at each other and walked quickly to the large crowd of ska kids that had formed around them. It was so awesome!! We only caught the last 10 minutes of their set, but yes!! this is Disneyland and they had another set at 10!
We called up our friend Brad, you may know him from choir, who is working as a photo guy and went with us to see them at the Streetlight/Reel Big Fish concert a couple of months ago. Anyway... he hurried up with the rest of his work and power walked all the way from one end of Downtown Disney to Tomorrowland where he caught part of the show with us. It was so much fun!! :) I didn't enjoy them as much the second time I saw them. Probaby because I was tired and I was really wanting to see Streetlight Manifesto... the greatest ska band around... and maybe because they are kind of Emo and I went to see a ska band and what I got was a weird choreographed emoish band... whatever... I really enjoyed them when I saw them at Ska is Dead 2 and when I downloaded their cd about a month ago. The point is that I really enojyed them to night!! It was so cool and fun.
Here is a link of them playing at Disneyland about two months ago. I haven't gotten a chance to upload one of their songs from this time... and obviously no one else has either because they aren't up on youtube yet... but, I'm sure they will eventually. Until then... chew on this!! :)

So anyway... we finished the day by hanging out with Brad until closing... hitting a few more rides and ending with Indian Jones. I didn't quite get what I wanted accomplished but, thus is life! :)
I think Erick and I will be back at Disneyland tomorrow... We hear Suburban Legends are playing tomorrow too... and I hope to bring my video camera and a real digital camera not just my phone which by the way had a dying battery... what are the odds?
Ok lates... I'm talking a lot and I would personally like to blame that on the "Tylenol Cold and sore throat NIGHT" :)
Thank you... and have a great day!
