Jeff and Merideth drove in from Knoxville with a guitar and fun socks.

On the way back to Carrboro I stopped in Asheville to have dinner with two friends from college whom I haven't seen in more than 5 years. Katie and Jason "Tiger" De Los Santos moved to NC from Tampa about a year ago and are still adjusting to not sweating year round.
Went to see Rick Froberg's new band Obits play at the Local 506. Never having had the chance to see Hot Snakes or Drive Like Jehu, this was the next best thing.
