Review of Baby the Rain Must Fall (1965) by Valerie R — 25 Jul 2004

I had a great night on the town tonight with Hannah. She came over around 7 and we headed off to Loring Park. We got free sit-upons from Target, lay out our towels and blankets and watched a little more than half of an old movie with Southern accents, horrible scene transitions, an old woman, and the line "yo mama.

" When the ADD set in, we decided to hit up other parts of uptown and headed over to my favorite coffee shop- Uncommon Grounds, though we didn't decide until after the normal turn and I ended up going the wrong way down a one-way.

..oops. We then hopped back in the car and headed to the Artist's Quarters (near Pondie's house). We got in for free and avoided paying the 2 drink minimum or being carded. We then lasted through this not so great singer, until Brian Just came on.

This guy was absolutely gorgeous, so Hannah and I arranged ourselves in our seats. When he started singing, it was heaven. Most gorgeous voice I have ever heard- Jason Mraz, Elliot Smith, Ben Folds, and Rufus Wainwright all mixed into one, and the songs he sang were beautiful.

It was a musical orgasm. Hannah and went up to him afterwards and ended up each buying a CD. (And he told me to email him if I had any problems with my CD...) He also invited us to check his website and come to his next concert (which is August 13 from 8-10 at Anodyne Coffee Shop on Nicollet if you want to go).

I was tempted to ask for his number or if he had a girlfriend or to just jump him right there in the middle of the bar, but resisted (I had his email address after all...) We then drove back to my house (where my car was waiting), stopping at the park and went on the swings while discussing boys and life.

Ended the night listening to Brian's fabulous CD. I can't wait for the concert on Friday! And Alex is having a party on Wednesday...Could my life possibly get any better?! :).
