My Greenpoint friends think that for some reason it would be a great idea to get Bill Murray to come to their party and somehow thinks that I have the capability to make that happen. They read somewhere that Bill Murray is having some kind of weird mid-life crisis going on and has been hanging closely with MGMT and showing up at random hipster parties. My friend Bubs thinks that since I know Grizzly Bear, that would somehow lead me to MGMT and essentially lead me to Bill Murray. I think that that is the most ridiculous logic ever. Tho my friend Andrew does live in the same building as one of the MGMT members and has been partying with them occasionally. I think the closest thing I can pull off is bring my Greenpoint friends to MGMT and Bill Murray but NOT the other way around. Anyway, I still don't understand why they would have such an idea and somehow got me involved with it.

But then after reading that article, I am starting to think that it's actually, REALLY, a great idea.
Last night, I went to see a Rock Opera around Hell's Kitchen 53rd st with Kaela, Brett, Ben, and Rebecca. It was a pretty interesting performance, a refreshing kind of comic off-broadway performance.
Here's a short synopsis: Perfect man, the superhero of The Hopeville Comic, can't quite keept it together when his girlfriend Molly breaks his heart. The villians, sex, drugs, and rockenroll, seize upon the chance to kill the weakened hero and infest the town of Hopeville with their deadly fun. It's up to Molly, April, and their gawly friend Felix, to save the town in The New Hopeville Comic.
We were on the guestlist because a mutual friend is playing percussion in the band. After the show, we went to some random Hell's Kitchen bar called the Vintage or something and had some beers and appetizers and then went over to hangout with the casts at Conker Hill bar. We found it awfully weird to be hanging out with the actors we saw on stage because we can't stop associating them with their characters. We also found it fascinating that most actors didn't actually really acted, their characters were more or less based on their true personalities. Example, the lesbian was really a lesbian and the gays were really gays, NO acting involved. Me and Kaela just kept eyeing one of the lead actor "PERFECT" in the show, because he was so freakin hot. After awhile at Conker Hill, we've decided that we've spent too much time uptown for any hipsters endurance, and decided to head back to Williamsburg. I DID NOT want to go back to wsburg or to any other bars but being that it was raining and we were almost in the middle of nowhere uptown, it would be really costly to call a car at that area, so I had no choice but to tag along with the crew back to.......Williamsburg. We went to Royal Oak for a while, met Brett's roommate...... Brett, and then played this drinking game called 5 questions in which I thought was really dumb and that's when I've decided that I really need to get the fuck home and sleep.
As I am writing this blog entry, I realized that I still have a pink paper bracelet on my right arm from like two nights ago. That pretty much sums it up for my weekend.
