Ohh La La Fest .2012

Kitsune.Maison.Night

Thursday.Oct.11th

This is my first time attending this event and it was good.  i LOVED the music they played.  It wasn't  busy and  you can count the people in here.  They where ALL mostly seating along the side of the theater.  Zowie and I sat by the stage.  After 30 minute, people started to arrive and line up along the stage, but not that many. 

Lescop was the opening band.  Even though they sang in French, they rocked it OUT!  The lead had some moves that at first, I chuckled, but later, admired.  The guitarist that was on the left hand side of the stage was very interesting to watch.  He looked like he belonged with Mars Volta.  He had this 70's thing going, nice  white dress shoes, tailored pants and shirt and can't forget his fro.  Very nice.  

Since Lescop sang in French (well, it is Kitsune Night), British band Citizen! killed it!  Not what I excepted.  I just recently downloaded their debut album, "Here We Are" and I am loving it (A MUST GET).  Think of the vain of Franz Ferdinand (Alex Kapranos produced the album) and Friendly Fires combine.  They sure lived up to the album's disco rock grooves and what shiny shoes.  Nice.

Tom Burke (Lead Singer) had on some nice patent leather looking loafers that reminded me of Michael Jackson.  He kind of moon walked or was it just me wanting him too.  If he did, he did it very well.  For sure , I'll be back to catch, Citizens!...AGAIN!

I tried to stick around for Housse de Racket, but they took so long to set up.  It was already 11:10pm and I was getting sleepy.  So, I decided to leave and I bet they threw a great show.  Until the next time but, definitely check out Citizens!  This is the band to watch for.

\m/ - K!CK A$$!!

Tuesday.August.14th

I arrived early to Pomona to avoid traffic and it took me almost and hour and a half to get here.  It should take only forty minutes, but what can you do, right.  There was a huge line to get in and of course, I had to step out because my ticket was in will call.  FCVK!!!

I still got a good spot even though I had to get back in line. 

The first band went on and yea...The only thing interesting was the bass player and the drummer.  Did she just flash use a cameltoe?

There is a girl in the very front and she has headphones on.  Who brings headphones?  Of course, she does.  I thought she was gonna take them off once the show started, but...NO!  She still had then on.  It could be to cover her ears?  Who knows.

Second opening act....Really.  FCVK!  It's always nice to see security doing his job, checking his phone.  Funny.  He could of been updating his status.  Did the lead singer just flashed us a moose knuckle?  What is going on here?

Franz.Fernand came out and they K!LLED !T.  What another GREAT show.  They played all the hits and I loved how they mashed up Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" with "Can't Stop Feeling".  THAT WAS THE $H!T!!!

Here is the negative, I was a little disappointed that they didn't play, "Lucid Dreams".  Someone shouted it out and Alex Kapranos (Lead Singer) told him, "we forgot how you play that song".  Funny.  DAM! 

They played some new songs and sound very promising.  Can't wait for the new album.  Nickolas McCarthy (Guitarist), why did you kick the crowd surfer?

\m/ - AWESUM!!!
