ChaGoo...

45. Hang out at the ATC. (96 left)

Tylers is pretty cool. Also, Bay 9 is pretty cool. All in all, its pretty sad that more Duke students dont really hang out at over here…

97. Go for at least one more show at DPAC.(97 left)

Ben Folds was awesome. I’d never seen him live and the show was much more high-energy than i expected it to be, considering it was an indoor theater-type venue. One thing that someone said the other day got me thinking.

Bassists are ridiculously awesome. They look like they don’t really care about anything. (except for flea from the chili peppers). If the characters of life could be classified within the structure of a musical group, I would want to be the bassist. I really do feel like there are certain characters that can easily be classified under either a drummer(someone who keeps things together), the lead guitarist(loves to go off on tangents), the one who plays the french horn, (random person who doesn’t really fit in anywhere).

Randomness is awesome.

83. Get a haircut at Duke Barbers. (98 left)

So, I figured that haircuts seem to be a symbol of stability. In my 23+ years of hair growth, I’ve got my hair cut only in 4 cities. Colombo, Whitesburg(once), Durham and Chapel Hill(twice).  While getting my haircut at Duke Barbers, (by someone who’s been working there since ‘69), I wondered how these stats of haircuts applied to other people.

1. Travelling/touring bands. (where did they cut their hair?)

2. Circus artists. ( In-house salon perhaps?)

3. Gypsies.

4. Other people who hike/travel for long periods of time.

Do people who do travel around a lot always come back home to get their hair cut? It would seem so. I would imagine that people who travel abroad for business always have a regular place at home that they get their haircut at. So, in a way, this place is a symbol of where home really is.

Also, the feeling of having someone else shave you with a straight-edge razor is a pretty amazing experience. Even though, you know you’re going to have to shave the next day.

Food for thought.

Duke/durham bucket list..
