Indianapolis?
« on: August 17, 2008, 11:53:00 am »
Sadly, i will be in this cultural wasteland of a city for a full week of work. Any recommendations for snippets of salvation?

You probably won't enjoy anything if you go there with that attitude.

Got a tow from a guy named Joe
 Cost sixty dollars hope I don't run out of dough
 Told me bout a sex offense 'put him three days in jail
 Stuck in Indianapolis, hope I live to tell the tale
 
 [Chorus]
 Can't go west, can't go east
 I'm stuck in Indianapolis with a fuel pump that's deceased
 Ten days on the road now I'm four hours from my home town
 Is this hell or Indianapolis with no way to get around
 
 Called my girl to tell her of the trouble that I'd had
 First time I called her in ten days, guess that made her mad
 Far as she's concerned I belong in this Hoosier state
 Stuck in Indianapolis with no way to set things straight
 
 [Chorus]
 
 Sitting in this bar is getting more than I can stand
 If I could catch a ride I really think I'd ditch this van
 Who knows what this repair will cost, scared to spend a dime
 I'll puke if that jukebox plays John Cougar one more time
 
 If I ever leave here I hope never to return
 If I get that van back, Man, the road I'm gonna burn
 Right now my future's in the hand of them boys down at Firestone
 Stuck in Indianapolis feeling all alone
 
 [Chorus]

Which week? Check out the Music Mill, In the Venue, and what's at the Murat Theater. I've seen shows at all three places and the Murat's by far the most perty.
 
 Downtown's quiet as hell, the state house is pretty, that's about it I can think of. Check this website for info about what's going on: http://www.aroundindy.com/
 
 Looks like the State Fair is coming!
Woof.

Bodies of Water, August 19.
 
 They were excellent tonite at the Black Cat. Same goes for the opener, Port O'Brien.

Agreed.
