So, Jessie and I headed to Kwangju around 7 tonight as we started our journey to Thailand.
We were planning on some Starbucks, and then a trip to a DVD bang to burn time until our one AM bus to Incheon came.
But Jessie had a great idea, and that was to try again to get into that foreigner bar that she had proofread the article about for the Kwangju times.
Awesome
It felt like the Grad Club, small tables and couches, and everyone smiled at us. The ambient conversation was in english, which rocked, and we were welcomed very warmly, apparently among the first strangers to try out the new, as yet unadvertised bar.
It was great. Jessie and I wound up having three drinks each, somehow, having only intended to have coffee. But seriously, after close to five months of soju, rum and coke was the greatest thing in the world.
I got to talking to the owner (one of them) and it looks like I may be able to get some gigs in the future there, which is really exciting, and just as exciting is that he wants to jam too, with the potential of performing together, from the sounds of it. YEAH!
Then we watched Amelie 2 at a DVD bang, which was really good. I love DVD bangs.
Then we went to the bus station, and found out that the bus leaving at 1 AM had sold out, so we would have to wait until 2 AM. We started to use the computers (and started typing this) when the driver came over and offered us two tickets on the 1 AM, so the trip was off to a good start.
Anyways, we're all checked in now, so all we have to do is wait now.
But we're off to a good start!
