I have never really watched lacrosse before, not even on TV. I wasn’t planning on watching lacrosse on Friday night either, but the parking lot was full for SOU wrestling so I had to park in the stadium parking lot. Walking to the Bob Riehm Arena from there meant walking through this lacrosse match. Things seemed really exciting, and I would have liked to have stayed longer; however, it was 35 degrees outside, and I came prepared with no coat, gloves, or long johns.

Fu*k! A Monster

Fuck! A Monster @ Club 66 in Ashland, Oregon

Opening for 100 Watt Mind last Saturday night @ Club 66 was a band called “Fu*k! A Monster”. The punctuation in their name is very important because “Fu*k a Monster” has a completely different connotation than “Fu*k! A Monster”. In any event, a couple of their members are also in FatherDoug, who I wanted to see play later in the evening. Unfortunately, evening turned into morning, and I had to wake up by about 7 a.m., so I split after 100 Watt Mind at about 1 a.m. and missed Father Doug.

During the two days I spent in Eugene late last week we saw almost 12 seconds of blue sky. Today’s photo (a photomerge of six photos actually) captures about half of those seconds.

If this looks familiar and you’ve never been on the campus, it may be because ESPN’s College Gameday has set up in this location on more than one occasion.

Last season, Oregon Tech was the #1 NAIA team in the country. This season they were ranked #2 early on, but SOU has beat them three times. Today’s sequence of photos is from the Raider victory this past Saturday night.

Last night was probably the seventh time I’ve had the privilege of seeing 100 Watt Mind live. While they always put on a great show, their performance last night had more energy than I have ever witnessed before. 100 Watt Mind absolutely killed it from beginning to end at Club 66 on this evening.

I have said it before, and I’ll probably say it again, but I love Club 66. I enjoyed a fantastic Caesar salad prior to 100 Watt Mind. The lighting is so good. So many small clubs do little or nothing in the lighting department, but I really appreciate a venue that puts forth the extra effort to make the lighting as professional as the sound.
