Seve vs Evan
Many a year ago I coached a soccer team of 14 year olds. The team was organized to give the kids who didn’t make the “elite” teams a place to play. I enjoyed coaching and got along with most of the guys I coached. One practice or game I remember one of the kids brought his friend Severin along. Severin played for one of the “elite” teams and was probably pretty unimpressed with our team. After this one visit I didn’t see Severin any more. A couple years later my sister asked Severin to a dance. I’m not sure of the specific details, but my general impression was that things went really poorly at the dance and afterwards my sister didn’t think to highly of Seve. About 4 years later my brother invited me to go to a show he was playing in a carpet warehouse. I’m still not quite sure why there was a show in a carpet warehouse to begin with, but I went with the girl from Brazil who I was dating (and mentioned in my previous post). After my brother’s band played I got my first taste of Seve vs. Evan. This was the third time I’d ever heard/seen this Severin character, and was by far the most impressive. I didn’t know that Seve knew how to play the piano or sing. I didn’t know he had the capacity to write and perform a song. I really enjoyed the music and the energy of their performance and was pretty well hooked. As I’ve gone through my various break ups it’s been nice to have Seve and Evan there singing and playing about carving hearts into their chests, eating Little Red Riding Hood, etc. Enjoy.
