The Music Box

No $H*T! Aprill, I am next to Santino Rice. At first I was, "who the FCVK is this guy wearing the Amish outfit?". Sure enough, it's Santino. I think he was there by himself. Then this crazy lady just walked up to him and told him that Dave Grohl is in the crowd. Groovy. I am looking into the crowd and from what I see, it's older. I have not seen so many facelifts in one place. I turn around and I see this older lady with a crazy stiff face, no emotion of any kind. Man, someone next to me has really bad B.O. It time to breathe through my mouth.

Some people have spotted Santino and started taking pictures of him. The lady is still telling people around her that Dave Grohl is here. Can someone just throw her out! This is her fourth time saying this and it's getting really annoying. WOW! I just saw this girl with a plastic white rat on her head. AWESUM!

Die Antwoord came out and they where FCVKn AMAZING! Loved the graphics they had. It reminded me of Keith Haring when he did that huge dress for Grace Jones for that performance at the Paradise Garage show in New York City (1985). But Grace Jones was better of course. Die Antwoord had different costume changes through the nite. They just kept stripping down to there underwear, well Ninja (lead vocals) did. He kept bouncing his junk to us and people where going crazy. I was waiting for that $H*T to pop out. The crowd was not that bad, but I did get this crazy guy. He pushed this girl who was next to me and I. So, I did the same and I gave him a kick in the shins. He moved quick. A$$hole. I could not believe how short and skinny Yo-Landi Vi$$er (other lead vocals) was. She has some big bobbies too. They look fake because they looked so firm and perfect. I Can not believe that she turned down the role to play lead on the American version of "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo!". David Fincher (Director of the American version) wanted her to play the lead, but Vi$$er turned it down to focus on her music. WOW.

I turned to see Santino because on the corner of my eye I would see him go crazy. He was singing his heart out with them. Priceless. I took pictures of him, but it was to dark. Oh well. Towards the end of the show, Ant.Woord broke out wearing Pokemon outfits. Cute. Can not wait to see them again. But is it true that this is just a front?! Are we getting played?!?!?!? If we are. It was worth my $$$$. They ROCKED!

LADY.GAGA. LiVE @the.Staple.Center (LOs Angeles, CA)

Wow! This show was better then the one I saw in Chicago (which I'll post soon).  I always say, "concerts are better indoors". The sound was amazing at the Staple.  She sounded  good and I love the fact that she spoke to her fans alot.  She even picked out  one that was over the top dressed and she asked him/her (could not tell) if they  made it and they said "yes". She was impressed and they showed him/her on the  JumboTron. Right on.

She was killing this concert.  She had specials guest's on (J/k) like Grace Jones and cousin It.  Wait......was that Britney on the JumboTron? Well, they looked like them. Tonight Gaga looked like Britney Spears instead of Madonna. What I loved the most where the videos she showed while  getting dressed. They where really good and I loved the hard beats that went with  them. Some of the videos reminded me of Nine Inch Nails "Closer" video w/a twist of Marilyn Manson. It got me thinking, these  videos are dark. She is so Goth.

When I saw her at Lollapolloza she was just okay.  It felt cheesy and I was a bit scared, but she pulled it off tonight.  Did she just made fun of us (L.A. people)?  Right on.  I like when  artist do that just to see the reaction on some people faces. What she said was  true.  "You do not have to be pretty or need alot of plastic surgery the way you  have been told Los Angeles. You can make it".  She brought up Prop 8. To keep  pushing for it across America and the world. "Jesus loves us for what ever  we are and we where born Gay and Jesus loves boys and girls". Right on Gaga. She has my vote.

Gaga played the new song and it sounded great live. Reminded me of Queen.  What a change and what a risk she took and I think it's gonna pay off.  This is my first time  ever seeing a Pop artist live. Did not liked her at first until I read that  Rolling Stone interview  and that "Poker Face" song.  I was gaga for Gaga. Is that a monster on the stage? She crazy.  That $H*T was crazy big huge. I  think she went a bit to far with that crazy puppet master $H*T.  It was a bit  messy but in a good way. Who needs perfection, right?. Just go with it.

"Bad Romance" was the last song and what a great tune to end this Halloween party at the Staple Center.  A- Miss Gaga. You had with.......

GRACE.JONEs.(LiVE!) @the.Hollywood.Bowl

I just read the review on this AWESUM concert that happened a week ago and they gave her a great review. Who evr wrote that review, we both had the same thing 2 talk about. But......we missed Dengue.Fever......DAM! I looked in2 the crowd and I saw; Drag Queens, Gays, Bi's, Lesbians, Str8's, Freaks, Artists and so on. This is goin 2 B a very interesting nite & it sure was. There was this guy goin up and down the stairs all around the bowl. He was wearin this red outfit w/A white fluffy lookin thing around his neck w/A black bike helmet on his head. Just smiling and wavin step by step.of.MONTREAL hit the stage and there was 2 much goin on. I like there music but watchin them live is ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzz. They R tryin 2 hard and they had 2 many people on stage and props. I need 2 get a drink Bcause watchin that mess made me wanna have a drink. NEXT!of.Montreal went off stage (Thank God) and Henry.Rollins came out 2 introduce Mrs.Grace.Jones.......and plug.....KCRW. Now the time has come and she came on stage draped over this huge silver curtain and revelled herself after the song. She was dressed like a white trogan/tiger lookin amazon lady. AWESUM! WOW! This is goin 2 B the SH*T!She did 6 different costume changes and evry1 of them where amazing. She is on top of her game. And that amazing video that she displayed was AWESUM! This is the 2nd best concert that I have seen so far this year. She is just giving us R $$$. She is what?.......60?......CRAZY! WOW! She was playin songs from her new album and the classics. BUT! she was runnin out of time and she closed it w/her classic 70s song "Pull Up 2 The Bumper". There was no time 4 "Warm Leatherette"......DAM!......but U know what, it was okay.....Bcause......she is Grace.Jones.
