Friends.2012

@the.Echo.(Los Angeles, CA)

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!

THEESATISFACTION/GRIMES.(L!VE)

THEESatisfaction/Grimes.2012

@the.Echo.(Los Angeles, CA)

Tuesday.June.19th

Two good things going on tonight and I might just go downstairs to check out Grimes DJ.   Curious on what she is going to spin.  I missed her...TWICE already and kicking myself because she is getting a bunch of press now.  DAM!!!  She recently was in Pasadena doing a free concert event and of course I couldn't go.  Double DAMMM!!!

So far, the first section of the parking lot is full already (good sign).  Once inside the Echo, I could count 20 people.  It was a Hip-Hop night (I think) and it's a bit lame.  Maybe later during the night it might pick up and it did.  You can say thirty more people showed up.  THEESatisfaction was going on at 11pm and Grimes goes on at the same time, $H!T.  

Once THEESatisfaction went on, they  bored me.  I guess because I wanted to checkout Grimes, who knows.  They where good rappers, but it was not grabbing me.  What grabbed me was the 90's outfits they where wearing.  It's for sure, the 90's are making a comeback.  GROOVY! 

I stuck around for three songs and headed downstairs to check out Miss Grimes on the one's and two's.  Well,  she played a very strange set.  She played Outkast "Hey Yea" and some other Hip-Hop music that I couldn't recognize.  I should of Shazamed her playlist, but I was not thinking at the time.  I was just tripping out on the fans who came out to see her tonight.  She had some fans on stage dancing.  Maybe around thirty people on stage.  They where getting off and singing to the songs that she would spin.  It was a very colorful crowd, I liked it.  But of course, I had to be next to a drunk!  FCVKn A!!!  He was sloppy and he was bumping into a bunch of people.  But no one complained, odd.  

Grimes killed it!  I liked her pink butterfly outfit she had on, very ravey.  After Grimes DJ set, the crowd started to leave and Lemonade was the closing act for the night.  Let me tell you...Lemonade was lemon's.  Left after the second song.

\m/ - GR!MES, ROCKs!!!

The.Cribs.2012

@el.Rey.Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)

Friday.June.15th

What, no encore?  Awesome because I am tired of standing on this FCVKn step.  It didn't even help after watching two horrible opening bands.  At least, Devon was a little entertaining and sounded better then the second band, a little better. Devon's front man screamed a lot and told some jokes that didn't make any sense.

The second band had a female singer that you could hardly hear what she was singing.  Almost after every second song,  they would all switch instruments and they would take turns singing.  That didn't even help.  They where all bad.  The crazy part, they just arrived from touring Spain.  WTF?!?!  Yea!  Crazy.  There name was very long, forgettable and they where even worse then Devon.  Devon should of gone second to relieve me from the second band.  It was...really, BAD.  BUT...It didn't stop the kids from moshing though.  

The moshing didn't get to out of control, but I was getting bumped into a lot by these drunk couple (great, here we go).  The girl was so FVCKd up that the guy was propping her up a bunch. I was almost knocked over a couple of times because of them.  It didn't help that I was standing on a step too. 

The.Cribs hit the stage at 11 o'clock and they kicked A$$!  This is my first Crib concert and I thank my friend Zowie for inviting me to see them.  More moshing started and the kids where getting tired.  What, already.  I would turn over to see the kids go crazy and a minute later, the moshing would end.  They should of saved all the energy for The Crids instead of that awful second band.

\m/- Crazy.
