SPX & oM
I had a magical weekend! 
hamlet_machine came for a visit! There was much walking and talking and eating and drawing. And we all checked out SPX together!
SPX was really inspiring. So many comics! I sawpollums, and picked up The Legend of Hardcore Dan by joshpm, and got a lot of random minicomics. Of particular note was VIS, which I am excited to see more of available online. I also got this awesome print from Emma Rochon. Fuck yeah!
And then Monday, Wen and I got cupcakes! Baked and Wired still has the best cupcakes in DC. And you can sit by the canal to eat them :3
And then Tuesday, OF MONTREAL WITH OPENER BY JANELLE MONAE AT THE NINE THIRTY CLUB FUCK YEAH. Janelle's set was really lively and I enjoyed all the scifi touches. And then of Montreal! It was quite spectacular. Kevin Barnes had 4.5 costume changes, and only one of his outfits involved pants. "Enemy Gene" is my favorite on False Priest but they kicked in this enormous throbbing bass that made me feel like my body was being crushed. But then they rocked out with "She's a Rejector" and the awesome was restored! Later on they played For Our Elegant Caste which I also love. WE CAN DO IT SOFTCORE IF YOU WANT BUT YOU SHOULD KNOW I TAKE IT BOTH WAYS. The set finished with a cover of Thriller, and then they played more covers jamming with the Wondaland Arts Society.
Here's a pic someone took at the Monday night show:
The concert ended with A BIG GROUP HUG.
