7. The Black Cat is an enjoyable venue
8. There were a fairly decent number of hipsters in the audience.
9. I would hate to be short at a show
10. Dinosaur Feathers (the opening act) were also a lot of fun. I liked the harmonies and the song about George R. R. Martin.
11. LC!'s sound has gotten a lot bigger or more intense.
12. I've reached the age where earplugs seem like a good idea.
