it's one of the first dates of the pavement reunion tour. they're at the iron horse. i'm pretty fucking excited, but it seems like no one else is. when the band comes onto the stage there's a pretty lackluster round of applause. i'm clapping and hollering and everyone looks at me skeptically. the band starts and they're pretty good, about what i'd expect. but with each song the crowd response gets weaker and weaker. people start backing away from the stage. the band looks confused. then stephen malkmus goes down into the pit and some girl immediately starts giving him head. he keeps singing. it's really discomforting. one of steve west's drumsticks goes flying. i don't try to catch it. now i'm pretty creeped out. nobody is digging this concert.
