IAMX.2013

Fonda.Theater.(Los Angeles, CA)

Wednesday.May. 15th

What the...HELL!!!  The opener had a great voice for someone who is hungover on the final show.  Some people where into him and other where just making fun.  It was something that I did not expect for IAMX  to have this one man show to open for him.  All he had was a guitar, a backing track with beats and a mic.  He had a good voice, but what the hell!?!?! 

Once again..IAMX was FCVKn...AWESUM!!!  Everyone in the band glitter bomb us.  Groovy.  IAMX played some new songs that sounded really good (can't wait).  The last time I saw him was maybe 5 years ago and I think this was a better show.  Chris Corner (Lead Singer) is a rock star.  He had his Rock-n-Roll boots on and glitter all over his face.  He reminded me of Dave Gahan (Lead Singer of DM) because of his energy on stage and body frame.  

Everyone in the band had there own unique look that my eyes where bouncing all over the place.  Each and every one of them had a different paint on there face. I wish they tour much and I was glad I was here to witness this fantastic show.

WOW!!! This should just be my write up.  Period.  Beth Ditto (Lead Singer) is a FCVKn true artist with an amazing voice that she gave me goosebumps a couple of times.  This show ended with a...BANG!  Seriously.  

From "What's Love Got to Do With It" (K!LLER cover that Beth did) to a mash-up of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" with "Standing in the Wave of Control".  FCVKn...Brilliant!  Of course, a fight broke out in the middle.  When I was looking back on my videos, I noticed the punches being swung.   It was crazy.  You would think, but I guess not.  I almost got pushed out of the way, so these kids could shove me off my spot, but I shoved them back and they moved on to there next victim.

That middle section that caused a little riot (the guy was pulled out aggressively from security), had Beth concerned during the middle of the show.  Thank God this happened towards the end because I think beth would of stopped the show, maybe.  In the middle of the show, there was something going on, that you would see security trying to figure out the problem.  Even Beth Ditto stepped in to figure out the problem.  You would see people pointing at someone to get pulled out, but no one ever did.  Whatever was the problem, it was solved with a punch.  Now that was...PUNK ROCK!

This was the show to be tonight!  The xx was playing down the street and I bet, there was no punches being thrown around.

\m/ - ROCK STAR!!

Monday.July.23rd

WOW, Its been how long since my last concert?  What a perfect show to kick off August's concerts.  As we all know, July is a slow month because everyone is in Europe for the festivals.  I almost forgot all about this concert.  My friend Zowie texted me and I came very close to buying a ticket to see Batman (which you gotta see to checkout Anne Hathaway as Cat Women, AWESUM!!!).  Thank God, she texted right in time or I would of missed (I wouldn't, if you know me) this show.  WHAT A SHOW IT WAS!

I arrived at the Music Box around 7:45pm and there was a huge line to get in and it was not moving fast enough.  Thank God for Zowie, she texted me and told me that she was in front with the tickets already.  N!CE.  We go in and we headed to the shirt stand.  From faraway, all I saw was the same shirts, until we got close and they had this really cool NEW shirt with the X embroider.  Inside the shirt had a screen printed X on it.  They are making there own shirts now...cool.  I got one and so did Zowie.

HAIM was the opening band (which I did not know) and I was so excited to see them.  I missed their free show at the California Plaza on Friday and the one on Thursday at Santa Monica pier.  Anyhow, they kicked...A$$!  They where good and they got me so excited that I wanted more.  For sure, another band to see in the future again.  The best part of there performance, was the mother dancing or was she pretending to play the drums?  Either way, she was cute.

The.xx hit the stage around 10:30pm and they opened up with their new single, "Angles".   From there, they played a couple of songs from the first album.  They kept it mellow until the middle of the show, where they preformed the new dance tracks that sounded so....FCVKn AWESOME!!!  The new album is going to be KICK A$$!.  

The crowd was perfect.  No drunks, no pushers or any kind on nonsense, it was just right.  Then there was that strange smell of shit.   Someone dragged that thing all the way into the venue.  I guess they didn't notice the smell when they stepped on it.  The shit was strong.  At first, I thought someone took a load in there pants.  Just imagine if they did...DAM.  

Back to The.xx, they killed it and they sounded so fresh.  They had a new X in the background that was 3 dimensional and was made out of plexiglass.  After they went off stage to do the encore, they filled up the X with white smoke.  Groovy.  After the encore, people stuck around and wanted more.  They thought they where gonna come back, but that was it.  What a GREAT show and what a GREAT band.  

\m/ - AWESUM!
