Also the music did prove they have their own style, but it was pretty similar throughout. Thao was rocking out pretty hard though and was friendly.

The crowd was just fuckin' ridiculous though, 90% hipster kids who were offended at the idea of moving their bodies. I mean I don't move around that much, but they were intentionally standing a still as possible, fuck people like that.

How could one possibly stand still during "Bag of Hammers"? I mean, that song is catchy and bouncy as anything. I was gonna go see them next week but they are trumped by the PUMPKINS (this is not a complaint).

i saw foreigner yesterday

it was pretty hilarious. the crowd was pretty huge and they covered a whole lotta love. i considered leaving at that moment but i had to stay for hot blooded.

it was free, of course. jason bonham was drumming, which is the only draw it had for me. he had a little solo in the middle of it, during which some keyboardist played part of kashmir for 10 seconds. i was afraid they were going to cover that song too and i actually was hoping puff daddy would rush the stage instead.

all in all it was entertaining, the snarky comments i had with my friends was the best part of it.

sunset junction soon, nomo and thao with the get down stay down played back at school but im home for the week, so i missed out. kind of bummed but its not like im into either of them. though i plan on checking out the nomo cd.

Been to Sex Pistols a couple of days ago, amazing show - that is, if you were already expecting the band as they are now. Donno, probably Björk will follow on the 7th august, but I'm really looking forward to UK Decay and Theatre of Hate on October's Drop Dead Festival at Lisbon.
After that, Peter murphy in early November will surely follow.

edit: wohoo, Wayne Hussey is coming too!
