Viva! Brother.2011

It's a DOZY (hot day today in Los Angeles) today, but the night was cooler.  I decided to see Brother U.K...I mean Viva Brother (thats a FCVKd UP name.  They should of stuck with U.K. Instead.  It sounds better) again because they threw a GREAT show last time (at Satellite) I saw them.  Plus, the album came out a couple of weeks ago.  Now I know more then just one song, "Darling Buds of May".
I like, "Famous First Words" (New album).  It's not, WOW!  It has a couple of good songs, but of course the album got slammed BIG TIME on  NME.  Oh well.  It did not stop me from buying the album.
You would think (once again), all the press they get, this place would be packed...Nope.  Once again, it's LITE!  Lot more people from last time.  Maybe...twenty or twenty five more.  It was a DEAD crowd, once again.  Even Leonard Newell (Lead Singer) was trying to pump us up and it was working, but just for a few minutes.  The girl in front of me made a cute Viva Brother sign (all by pencil) and Leonard saw it and gave her a smile.  At the end of the show, Leonard gave her a guitar pick.  That was really nice of him.  All that hard bullshit, he really has a soft spot.

It was a kick a$$ concert again.  No matter how small the crowd was, they K!LLED !T.  They sounded and played great.  The only thing that was to cool for school, no encore.  They just left the stage, waved goodbye and never came back.  We waited for a couple of seconds and the lights went on.  Even with all that spitting that Joshua Ward (Guitarist) was doing, they should just drop the Rock and put Punk on Grit.

I missed the first show they had at SpaceLand (aka Satellite) because of something, I forgot. But, watching tonight's show, I wanted to kick my self for not going. They where funny and GOOD.

At first, they started out not so what I expected. They came out holding up cabbage for Christ Sakes! When I saw that, I was already thinking, "they are one of those bands". After a couple of songs, I was pulled in. Not knowing what to except from them, they had me laughing and moving. I like the little dance numbers they would have after every third song. They would do these bad choreographed dance moves with throw back music from the 80's and 90's and it was FUNNY to watch. The girls next to me kept calling it, "genius". I had to stop for a moment. Genius? Funny, yea, but genius? I had to laugh because THAT was a genius remark.

I looked into the crowd and I notice ALOT of young girls wearing that signature little head band (just like Darwin Deez). Cute. So cabbage was handed to some people into the crowd and of course, some had to start throwing it around. Darwin told them to stop, but you would still see a leaf going by. Funny.

At least this show was entertaining because the other day, I went to see Jersey Shoresical...no comment, but a GENIUS idea. The only thing they need to do is, recast EVERYONE with people who can actually sing and act the part. But I bet, this is gonna be a hit, just like, Rock of Ages.
