The Best of Showpaper "I Saw You," Edition Two
Quick refresher: Showpaper is a list of all-ages shows in the Tri-State area, a biweekly newsprint one-sheet that harkens back to the days of punk flyers and Xeroxed fanzines. But the most unfailingly superb part of Showpaper is a regular sidebar called "I Saw You," a kind of Missed Connections for DIY kids. These blurbs are hilarious and horn-doggy, flirty and fickle. So a while back, we republished five of the best. Five more awesome blurbs from over Showpaper's lifespan of 48 issues are below.

Should you be a girl who's ever been to a Black Lips show, e-mail isawyou.showpaper@gmail.com with the issue number and ID that appears after the date above; should you see someone sexy at Ms. Bea's in Austin this week, e-mail that same address, but make your blurb good because everybody reads these first.
