what kind of noise does a camel make?

i left work early yesterday b/c i felt sick. it's most likely allergies, so while i wasn't giving anyone little green germs of death, the room spun and my eyes were scratchy. even with all this, i ventured out last night into soma to see clap your hands say yeah, a group of grads from connecticut college who are touring with the national all over the country, canada, and the uk. if i needed to pay for my ticket, i would have stayed in bed in a heartbeat, but one of the bandmembers (thank you robbie) put me, todd, and another conn alumn on the guest list, so we had freebies. and how could i pass up a chance to see them perform? exactly. so we waited in the cold and smoke-filled line down a back alley in soma, got front row seats to a street fight, met two friends name bill who were sharing a burrito yet appeared totally straight, finally got in, and the band sounded awesome. still can't tell which twin is which, though. but i highly recommend picking up their self-produced cd at your local music store (and if they don't have it, check out their website for info on how to order). amoeba might have some copies left, and amazon will also be selling it starting next week; you can even reserve your very own copy. just a side note, this past weekend, their cd was #493 on the amazon sales ranking and today it's #207. incredible. the one downside to last night was that all the neighboring cigarette/misc. smoke made my allergies worse, so now i have to work from home (thanks to trusty work-supplied laptop). but i get to work in sweats, and i saw some camels perform. bonus.
