Ouch! "Good luck with your career", was said from someone down in the crowd to School Of Seven Bells (the opening band). When I'm not crazy about a band, I just don't clap. For someone to be that mean spirited is FCVKd up. It take balls to be up there to perform and get people to listen. I guess some people have there own way to express themselves.

Beside that comment, people where digging "School Of Seven Bells", (was it because some of the members use to be in The Secret Machine). The Secret Machine was a cool band, but I did not hear the connection. I give respect to Interpol because they always helps out other bands that they like or they are friends with and share them with us.

I looked around the place they performed (UCSD campus). It was not bad. It felt like I was at a high school dance and I was a chaperon. To top it off, I saw this 15 year old girl wearing coochie cutters! Pretty crazy funny $H*T. That did not help. Wow. Thank God she moved up closer to the front or I had to move. Other then that, It was great to be on the floor once again to see them. Not up in the bleachers (even though they did have bleachers).

Interpol went on and Paul Banks was sporting a new look. Not bad. From where I was standing, he looked like David Beckum. Really! He had this fohawk with a mullet. At first I was, "Nooooooooo!" and "Why?!?!". I got over it and I was digging the new Mr. Banks. He looks tougher as if he was fronting a hard rock band. All he needed was a chain (maybe that's next).

Thumbs up with this show and double thumbs up for playing "The New". What?!?! I was in shock because that's my favorite Interpol song. I don't hear that song get played live as much, ever. That made my day. After the show, I saw my friend Blanca (HARD CORE iNterpol fan). She just saw them at San Francisco and she is gonna see them at Santa Barbara next. WOW! I wonder if she is gonna see them at Coachella? Let's see.

No I am not a hardcore Interpol fan, it just happen that this one went on sale first. When I heard they where gonna play at Pomona, I prefard see them there then here. Interpol is a band that needs to be seen indoors then outdoors. It was a good thing that I did not sell this ticket.

I went straight to shirt stand and got my shirt (just to let you know, I washed it and the MTHRFCVR shrunk!). From there, I went to the bathroom. There was this guy next to me, barfing. The show has not even started yet. A couple of people where making fun of him. Of course you had a jerk to call him a "Faggot". Wow, you would think, but of course.

It's 60 degrees tonight and the scarfs, beanies and layering is out in full force. Groovy. I walked around for a bit and The Greek felt like a little carnival. They had tents that sold stuff like beer, kettle corn, posters and so on. I went back to my seat and sure enough, I had drunks around me. They behaved, but what's up with the FCVK food shopping during the show. It was non-stop. One after the other. So I had them walk behind me.

Interpol went on and they FCVKn killed IT! They where better here then the Pomona show. I was hoping the opposite, but they where on it. Interpol played more songs from the first album and four encore songs! The playlist was the same, but they tweaked it. When they played "Try It On" (new song), I noticed a bunch of people got up. Hey, that's a good song.

It got crazy down at the pit on the last 30 minutes of the show. People got up on stage and once up there, they where tacked by security. That $H*T was crazy. The last person that went up there took the mic and the stand (Paul Banks mic stand) with him and he would not let go. So they dragged him off the stage with the mic and stand. That left Paul mic less for a couple of seconds and pickless. Paul kept it cool with the whole thing. AWESUM!

After this AMAZING show, I bumped into my friend Blanca (hello Blanca!). She spotted me and we hungout for a bit. She just arrived from watching Interpol at Vegas last nite(WOW!). She also went 2 Pomona. Now that's a true fan, but she did not go to the San Diego show (shame on you). Blanca was a bit out of it because she only had a couple of hours of sleep from the Vegas trip. She was here with her cousins (I think, I forgot, sorry).

We where hangout and she wanted to stick around to met the band. I was down for it. While we where waiting, Blanca introduced me to a couple of ladies who she met on line that went to the same shows as she did (Groupie's!). They are here to hunt the band out. We stuck around to almost everyone left, but there was just a couple of us still here. This is fun because I never done this before. I might get to meet the band. Cool.

We where outside of The Greek and sure enough, I see Paul Banks walking to his tour bus. Kids where yelling his name and he would wave at them. This is so interesting. I feel like a groupie. Paul Banks came back out and went inside a car that was parked next to the bus. I was thinking "These kids are gonna rush the car" and they DID NOT! WHAT?!?!?!? They just stood there and yelled his name while the car just went by us. Lame A$$ fans. If I was 16 or so, I would be on the hood of the car or I would of ran to my car and followed him. Some kids left, but others waited for the band to come out. We stuck around for a couple of minutes and then we decided to leave. Blanca has met the band before so she was done. I went home and Blanca texted me that Paul came back and he signed and took pic's with the fans that where left. DAM!!!!!!

iNTERPOL -iNTERPOL-

When I first heard this album (Interpol -Interpol-), I could not stop playing the first three songs; "Memory Serves", "Success" and "Summer Well". I could not go beyond those songs, but then I was getting tired of them. Two weeks later, I am writing about it to let you know, THIS $H*T KICKs A$$! You would call this the break-up album because Carlos D left the band after the album was done, Paul Banks split up with his model (Helena Christensen) and they left there major label (Capital) and went back to Matador (YEAH!). But I have been reading reviews that this is there WORST album then "Our Love To Admire". WHAT?!?!?!?! "Love" was a flop? I think that was an incredible album just like this one. HATERs.

JULiAN.PLENTi LiVE! @the.House.of.Blues (SD)

Here we go.....my fav place 2 C a concert in San Diego....the.House.of.Blues......love this venue.......so here we go. We (Deanna and I) arrived a bit late 2 catch the opener. The reason was crazy. We took awhile finding a validation machine that wood validate the ticket from the Hortan Plaza and the machines where not takin my ticket. I guess they cut them off @ 9p. $H*T! The exit ticket w/out validation was $22 FCVKN bucks! ouch. Next time arrive a little sooner.....oh well. I went straight ahead 4 the shirts and they ALL SUX! They only made 3 kinds. A bright green and pink.....CUM ON! This is not WHAM.....enough of this 80s $H*T! the 3rd was okay but it looked as if U needed 2 use 3D glasses 2 C what it said. Oh well. The opener had bettr shirts then him. We took off 2 the stage and we got up close from last time. Not 2 many people.....PERFECT. $H*T! I 4got my battery 4 the othr camera. DAM! no video. sorry. $H*T! I should of checked twice. I thought it was in there.JULiAN.PLENTi hits the stage and.....wow.....I like the line up he has on stage. I thought they where his roadie's. They did not look like Ur skinny thin, nicely dressed iNTERPOL cast. I like. Especially the chellist. nice touch. Made the music sound much bettr. PLUS.....Mr Bank's got a new haircut.......I like. He sounded good and he was okay. I think he was bettr then CASABLANCAs. He really did not need visuals. Paul kept it simple. Just the band. nice.

JULiAN PLENTi is...

NOT A DiSAPPOiNTiNG ALBUM. The lead singer of iNTERPOL (Paul Banks) has come out w/a really good solo album that is nothing from his band. RiGHT ON! If U R or not a iNTERPOL fan.........this is 4 U. The standout tracks R “No Chance Survival”, “Unwind”, “Only If You Run”, “Games For Days”, “Madrid Song” and “Fly As You Might”. Those tracks I cannot stop listening 2. Check it out.
