I get anxiety attacks around hipsters













but I'd go.

To give a little more info about the situation...
I like both these bands fine. I've got all of YYY's stuff and I've heard a lot of the Locust.
I will end up going alone due to Best Looking Boy not touching hipster shows with a 1,000 foot pole. :(
He is my show buddy.
I've gone to shows alone before but just haven't in such a long time.

For some reason, I highly dislike Karen-O....

I'm thinking i'll just wait till the last minute before whoever goes on first starts, this way I won't have to stand around looking at all the hipsters. :eyesp:

I wouldn't go, but i hate the YYYs
If you do end up going, you should dress in fetish wear. That'll show the hipsters!!

It's too bad you hate the YYYs and you're not here.
We could go as a dominatrix/slave couple.
This way all eyes are on US baby and the hipsters with their haircuts and new shoes get no attention.

I know no one cares but it was a really great show.
I didn't think Yeah Yeah Yeahs songs would be so danceable live.
I haven't danced around like that in a loooooooooong time.

Just got back.
Locust was lame as expected.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs were intense and fun like sp aced said.
I worship Karen O with every fiber in my being.

Aww don't feel bad.
I love Explosions just as much as the next guy (and maybe just a little more since they're hometown heroes) but sometimes they can a little boring live.
They're way better on CD.
I say just listen to their cds and study. You'll be able to do both that way. :)

At least you guys got locust. When I saw YYY's a few months ago I had to endure deerhoof. I wanted to just sock that weird japanese dancing lady in the face.

Yeah I really like EIST but that doesn't mean I can't think they're boring live.

um no i don't. fuck that indie leet shit. deerhoof is horrible, absolutely unlistenable. in the stupid japanese gibberish genre, cibo matto is a billion times better, at least they have some semblence of a beat and melody. when you play deerhoof to a crowd or just watched the audience at the concert, people are not bouncing their heads or feeling the music--rather everybody just looks at each other with a confused expression going "what the hell is this crap?!". Most of the people are just giggling and laughing at the absurdity of deerhoof. fuck deerhoof- and fuck pitchfork followers that like deerhoof only becuz pitchfork tells them to.

Their schtick is cool but the music, um. I don't know. I just don't get it. It was cool to see them. They at least get props for having a creative gimmick. Deerhoof on the other hand. Geez. If it were Deerhoof opening I would have just got hammered and tried to ignore them.
