Jake.Bugg.2013

@Bowery.Ballroom.(New York City, NY)

January.14th

What a great way to start the new year.  Jake Bugg didn't disappoint at all!  No wonder he was on the front cover of NME and number one on the charts in England.   when Jake came out, I thought it was just going to be him playing acoustic, but he actually had a band to back him up.  AWESUM!!!

Jake Bugg didn't speak much to us, but in my mind, he really didn't have to.  His music did.  I looked around and everyone was glued.  The crowd was young and old and loved every minute of the show.  I wish I was going home early to catch him at The Troubadour.

I made it early to catch another rising star name, Valerie June.  She played a acoustic set and what a soulful voice.  Valerie June is from Tennessee and Jake Bugg found her and asked her to open up for him.  What a find.  She was very entertaining and what a cute girl.  Think of Medusa's (not her, but her wild  hair) because her dreadlocks where wild and all over the place, but in a good way.  What I liked best, is when I found her back stage taking a picture of the crowd she just performed too after her set.  The funny thing, before she played her last song, she told the crowd, " I can't wait to see Jake Bugg after with a good chicken".  

\m/  - ROCK ON!!!

Friends.2012

Tuesday.June.26.2012

It's been a tough week, but going through it very slowly.  I know that my little man is in pain and soon he will be up and running.  It just makes me sad to see him this way.  Get well little boy.  Love you.

I was going to go see 2:54 at the Troubadour tonight, but decided to give my ticket away.  I was not crazy about their album, 2:54.  So, I decided to see Friends instead.  Another band that is getting a lot of press as well.  I hope I made the right decision.

I walked in and this band called, "Splash", was up on the stage and there was no splash of any  kind. The band  was very cheesy and so where their outfits.  Samantha Urbani (Lead Singer of Friends) went up on stage to sing with Splash on there last song.  Was that Thomas Dolby and Jake Spears?

Friends went on and they where good.  Samantha would go into the crowd and personally dance with some people.  She would do that 80's dance where you swing your arms back and forth.  Samantha reminded me a little bit of Lisa Lisa and Shenna E.  It was the outfit she was wearing.  She was dressed in white with a shoulder padded jacket.  Groovy.  

The rest of the other band members had there own style.  Lesley Hann (vocal/guitar) was giving us, I am to cool for school look.  It sometimes felt like she didn't want to be there.  Maybe it was just for show.  The drummer decided to take his shirt off after the third song to show off his skinny rip body.  Yea baby!   

\m/ - ROCK ON!
