Tim Kasher

I really can't explain how much I love Tim Kasher and how much his music/words mean to me. I can literally relate to EVERY song of his. I just feel such a connection to him & his music. Anyone who knows me - knows this.

Throughout the years, I have probably seen Cursive, The Good Life and/or him solo close to 20 times (combined) at LEAST! I've been going to see him/his bands since 2003. It's kind of crazy because Tim and I have actually became somewhat of friends. He knows me as being the girl singing every single word to all of his songs in the front row.

Every time I see him, he will go out of his way to come say hi, wave or give me a hug. It seriously makes me feel so amazing. My friend Micaela and I went to see him perform (solo) last night at the Glasshouse Record Store and as soon as he saw me, he greeted me with a hug. Micaela said everyone was staring LOL. I think they thought I was his girlfriend (I wish).

So, he (along with a band) played for about an hour and a half. He said he was going to go next door to have a drink and to join him. So, Micaela and I went over there and met up with some other friends. One of our friends ended up talking to the guy who plays chello for Tims band and Micaela ended up talking to the drummer. Meanwhile, I got to sit at the bar with Tim and talk to him for like an HOUR almost. It was SO AWESOME!!! I got to tell him things I've ALWAYS wanted to tell him & ask him things I've always wanted to ask him. We seriously had the best conversation. I still can't believe that happened. I woke up with the biggest smile.


While we were sitting at the bar, Tim suggested we have a shot. I personally do NOT take shots but.... it's TIM KASHER! ...so I did! I pulled out money to pay and he said "I got it...for coming to all the shows over the years." SO sweet! So, we took our shot of Jameson and continued to talk. We were having the best time!

Then we all went to a pool hall to play pool. Me and the guy who plays trumpet/keyboards for Tims band were on a team and Micaela and the guy who plays drums were on a team. It was seriously THEE best night ever. I never really thought I would ever get to HANG OUT with Tim like that. AND Tim played "Empty Bed" during his set. I was SO excited!!! Ahhhhh...what. an. amazing. night!
