I was spacing out in the library from an extensive morning of reading so I decided to take a walk. I walked up to St. Stephen's Green and then onto Grafton Street. I ended up purchasing a pair of shoes that were on sale. While I was paying, I heard a swing band start playing. So I stepped onto Grafton Street and there they were in their matching bright blue zoot-ish suits with Hawaiian shirts underneath. The bass player had a great look going but the rest were either ordinary or smarmy.
Anyway, the event was sponsored by the Church of Scientology as part of a drug awareness campaign, specifically against marijuana. The sign behind the band said they were the number one swing band in the UK and I wondered if that was because they had influential supporters for events like this.
I hung out for a couple songs and wished I didn't have any stuff in my hands so I could go dance. Then I went back to the library and got more reading done. Wee.....
