Sometimes you just need to rock out to Canadian music.

I need to go to bed, but I had to post something.

I just got back from seeing Broken Social Scene with JT & Co. in St. Pete. It was one of the most fun shows I have ever been to. The band took their time on every song and played wonderfully. Absolutely incredible. Indescribable. I danced my heart out and sung my lungs out, which is exactly what I needed in the middle of this stressful semester. They played "It's All Gonna Break" second to last, and I went nuts. It's a rare moment to hear one of your all-time favorite songs live. My love for that song is disproportionate to my love for the band's work as a whole. And here's the best part: after the show, I looked Brendon Canning (one of the guitarists and a founding member) right in the eyes and told him how much I love that song. He said that he hoped he did it justice. You did, Brendan. You did.

I feel ready to take on the world again. I really, really needed that.

Peace,
Sam
