I do and don't get starstruck.  Hee hee hee.  Starstruck.

I pretty much want musicians to go about their business and me to go about mine and when our paths cross it doesn't bother me particularly if there's no recognition on either side.  Hells, I lived in Montreal - and the fact that my friend and I crossed paths (literally) with the guy from Knocked Up (Jay), (we think), the fact that Katie Holmes' Perrier was once mistaken for mine at an organic food store?  Meh.  Though these are stories that I'll drag out once in a while, I totally failed to be a fangirl on either occasion.

So put me in a room with about 30 other people - some of whom just happen to be Montreal's Stars (the BAND people) whose instruments happen to also be there?  Well, the major thrill is hearing them play live.  There's this thing here called the Glee Club at Radio Sonic.  That's the extent of my knowledge.  I will try to link up in the a.m. if I can find it.  And Angel - called Fred - is the one who got me there and who I will be worshiping of until someone tells me to stop.

It was very very amazing to see a band you are rather deeply in love with up-this-close.  I learned that Amy Millan is not in the least intimidating, that if you love your music it shows even if you're kind of quiet about it, and that drummers really are that cool.

Then, as if that weren't enough, we braved the 14-year-old emo kids to see them live tonight.  The Stars make me want to cry in the very very best way.  Listen here, and do it now.
