i’ve been waiting for this moment

Now to come clean, I’m relatively new to Los Angeles. I moved here a little over a year ago and the Silversun Pickups will always have a special place in my heart. I guess I make a unique association between the band the city, mostly for the way in which their buzz seemed to blossom in the formative months (isn’t that cute?) of my stay here. They played a residency in August of last year at Spaceland. Now I knew pretty much nothing of them, but a friend of mine was curious about them and Freed had heard of them but not gotten around to checking them out. The band generously offered up spots on their guest list to me for a couple of the shows, and the whole thing just came off as too good to be true.
