@OceanSide.Amphitheatre.Theatre

(San Diego, CA)

Sunday.September.16th

I would like to say something, Fiona, you need to eat a sandwich guurrrrl.  You look like the crypt keeper.  She is so fcvkn skinny that her eye socks are sunken in.  When she came out on stage, I thought she was part of the backup band.  Fiona doesn't look right and you would think people would say something, but I guess they really don't care.  Sad.  

Today's weather is not as bad as Friday's and Saturday's 100 degrees temperature.  FCVK.  it was HOT during the day and warm at night.  It's a little bit (just a little bit) cooler.  You would think, being by the beach would help.  Not really. 

Deanna and I missed the first band while we where waiting to get in.  They sounded good from what I was hearing.  I didn't catch there name, but I will (Gardens & Villa).

Once inside,  it was not that busy yet and it's just 4:30.  I noticed that Father John Misty was scratched off the bill about some contract agreement.  SUX! 

OBERHOFER was the next band and they where...alright.  They lost me after the third song.   The crowd was loving them and that was the same reaction with Best Coast.  Best Coast lost me after the first song.   I decided to just whip out my phone and take pictures of the sun down and the crowd in the amphitheater.  I was excited to see both of these bands, but I was disappointed.  If it wasn't for Fiona Apple, I would of just went home.  

Fiona Apple was good.   This was my first time seeing here and she was entertaining to watch.  She forgot the line to the beginning of just one song, but it felt set up. The crowd was singing to every note and admiring her every move.  No word across the crowd about how skinny she looked.  The only thng going around was, "wait until she plays the piano".  So I waited, but I did not see anything entertaining about it.  I thought she was going to get crazy on it, but not really.  Was I missing something?  Maybe the way she played it and she did quite well.  All I have to say about her is, pull pork!

Santigold.2012

@94.9FM.Sandy.Parts.Festival (Oceanside, CA)

Sunday.June.3.2012

FCVK!  I am still  jet lag.  On Saturday night, I arrived back home from Provincetown, MA.  I almost came close not going to Santigold on Sunday at Oceanside, but I didn't want to disappoint my friend Dianna.  She got me this ticket for my birthday and thank God I didn't cancel because this was a cool festival.  It was right on the beach, by OceanSide Pier.  It had a okay line up; Electric Youth, The Naked and Famous (they sounded better from the last time I saw them) and two other bands that I forgot their names.  

People in Oceanside where very friendly and polite.  If they bumped into you or accidentally kicked a empty cup at you, they would say, sorry.  What?!?!  That word is unheard of in Los Angeles.  I was shocked.  What was more shocking was the price of food.  A slice of New York pizza (which was FCVKn good) was $7.00!!!  Well, they sure kept it real for NYC.  I was gonna get another one, but decided to get a $3.00 hot dog (which was good).  Beer was $6.00 and all they had was Bud Light beer.  Just Bud Light beer.  

Besides the food and the people, Santigold kicked A$$!!!  I think she preformed better here then she did at Coachella.  It could of been ALL the pot I kept inhaling from my neighbors.  Just kidding.  She was great, but the only thing I have to say, can we have some visuals next time around.  Just saying. 

\m/ - Rock On!!!
