Here is what I did tonight:

I realized late in the game The Dicks (basically Austin's version of the
Dead Kennedys) were playing at Red 7. I went and got in so late that I
got in for free. But they played one of my fave songs of theirs at the
end, "Rich Daddy," about parents that spoil you:

That cleared out so I went to Elysium and asked the DJ to play Killing
Joke's "Love Like Blood" even though maybe 15 people were there at most.
He did so - god forbid anyone request any song but that one! - and it
got maybe 10 people on the floor, while I was alone with my Crown & Diet
Coke. It was some extended mix of "Love Like Blood" I'd never heard
before, so it kept going...and going.... Ultimately it was actually
kinda depressing.

Anyway, yep
