Les Savy Fav
@EchoPlex
Friday.January.28.2011

It's great to see that there is a line to get in for Les Savy Fav. The last time I saw them, they opened up for Yeah Yeah Yeahs in 2003 at The Fonda. That's when Karen O would always be drunk on stage. Ahhhhh, the good times. From what I remember from that concert, they where...CRAZY, well the lead singer (Tim Harrington) is the crazy one. Sure enough, he still is.

Besides them putting on a good show, Tim is still the person to watch. He came out wearing a Pope hat and a wig (which I thought he grown his hair out). Tim slowly took off the hat and his wig between songs. My eyes where on him at all times. He went into the crowd maybe four times. He climbed the rafters and went all the way up to the pillar's of the EchoPlex ceiling. He was singing up there. Then, he decided to lay on it. Funny guy. Tim came down from it, but at first, I thought he was gonna jump. Thank God he didn't. Imagine if he did. He would of injured some fans.

It was interesting to watch his bandmates as well. How do they put up with his craziness? He kissed his guitar player (just a peck) and he lifted this guys shirt and made sounds on his belly. He is so comfortable with his sexuality, but I don't think he is gay. I think it's all for show.

Right before the encore, they played there hit song, "Let's Get Out Of Here" (which was on my top 50 songs of 2010). It's so great that they are now getting notice since they been around for quite awhile. Just recently I heard that song on TV. You know what, I am all for it. Who cares. Do what you gotta do to get notice. Who listens to radio anyway? I don't. I stopped listening to KROQ when they started playing Metal and the same songs where played every two hours. Plus, all the great DJ's left that broke bands.

When Les Savy Fav came back from there encore, Tim broke out with some coochie cutters. Hot! The crazy thing that I did not want to see was one of his nut sack's. He was shoving the mic down his shorts and he pulled the wire and he exposed us with a nut. $H*T! That took the cake.

SOLD OUT! Good for them to sell out the Troubadour tonight. That's big. Now that I am familiar with the new songs from the new album "Ritual", can not wait to hear them live once again. They played a couple of new songs last year at the EchoPlex that sounded promising.

Giant Drag was the opening band and I missed them. Who knew these bands are gonna go on so early. Usually bands go on late at the Troubadour...but not tonight. White Lies are scheduled to go on at 9:30 and they did. I went to checkout the shirts and they where...BAD! They where old shirts from two years ago. What the hell. I guess they are left overs that did not sell. They had this wolf on the front with the band logo on top or on the bottom, I forgot. I saw it from far and turned away quick. You can get better one's from there website.

HELL YEA! They played my favorite track from the new album, "The Power & The Glory" and it sounded AMAZING! Is it me or did they cut that song short? It felt short for a strange reason. "The Power & The Glory" was the second encore song and they closed it off with "Bigger Than Us". Nice. At first I was not crazy about that song, but a couple of listens, I was hooked. You should checkout the video. If you like E.T. (the movie), you are gonna love it.

The crowd tonight was older. Let's say, "ALOT of music executives". Sure enough I thought it was gonna be a very uptight crowd, but it was not. I Did not see to many young kids like the other time I saw them. Once they came out and played the first song, people where bopping and singing along. Nice. I thought it was gonna be a tough crowd.

I noticed that Harry McVeigh (lead singer) was wearing the same pant's and shoe's from last year's show at the EchoPlex (that was a great show). Groovy. And Charles Cave (Bass Guitar) was sporting a new facial thing on his face, a beard. He looked at bet like Tim Harrington (Lead Singer of "Les Savy Fav"), but Charles is better looking. It's okay but I prefer him clean cut. Let's shave that $H*T!

Once again, White Lies Rocked it OUT and the new songs sounded great. If you get a kid bouncing up and down half of the show (he was next to me of course), you did your part. Pick up the new album and you gotta see them.

\m/ \m/ \m/ \m/ - Awesome!
