visiting friend leroy bought a couple of tickets to
diminished men and dengue fever at the crocodile
but opted out last minute because going to shows can
  feel like work. he offered his to me and i accepted it,
  tho' a little reluctantly because most venues now are
borderline hostile--TSA style security shakedowns,
  austere interiors, concrete floors, and nowhere to sit.
i don't mind walking, but standing in one place hurts
my back so first thing i did was scope the venue and
sure enough there wasn't a stick of furniture, not even
a barstool. the only exception was a lone chair behind
the merch table of the opening band. luckily, they're
friends of ours and i volunteered to staff it while they
played. to its credit, the new crocodile has great sound,
clear and full but not overly loud. it was a good show!
we cut out early to catch a bus but our timing was off
so we walked the whole way back, which was for the
best as i'd been sitting on my ass for hours anyway.
