G is for gig?
Apr. 10th, 2007 11:13 amGigs - been busy. Quick update.
08-09/03 Fall Out Boy = Gods. Asides from being hauled out of the mosh concert no.1 (dizzy spells again, and yes everyone pulling those faces, i've learned my lesson), I was the absolute first let in and on the barrier for concert 2. Pretty special moment for the old mish, let me tell you. Especially since it's never going to happen again.
29/03 Dropkick Murphys - great. Diables as support was a great move. The one before them - I have very little respect for, being scarcastic about us seeing support acts before telling us to fuck off - before they started. Being pissy is not Punk Rock.
31/03 V festival - PIXIES. Barrier for PIXIES. Blown away - I want to be Kim when I grow up. Also saw: New York Dolls, Jarvis Cocker, Beck and a bit of Pheonix from where I was sitting.
03/04 Joss Stone - Hopeless clothes sooo Clandestine (Roz agrees and K.O. now uses that term for henious gear) but Amazing voice. Well worth the asking price.
06/04 New Found Glory - Ah, soft core punk rock gigs. New shirt, great atmoshpere, interesting support which was a cross between Fall Out Boy and The Academy Is...
Free sticker, CD and DVD. Hot Brunette Bob the roadie, whom I may have ogled.
05/04 Bane - my first hardcore gig. If I can develope an approprite moshing style, I may very well join in next time. Am a hardcore fan. Nicest crowd at any gig i've seen to date. Bane hoodie currently being worn. Pity the Tori believes it looks like sporting apparel and James doesn't believe in any Hardcore other than his beloved Hardcore tehcno/trance stuff. Interesting arguement on easter day though.
extra: saw Hot Fuzz (sooo bloody funny, shall actually purchase when it's all DVD), the Notorious Betty Page (both on 02/04) and Becomming Jane (don't - unless semi-serious romance makes you laugh as much as it does me). 300 soon (I hope)
Far more gigs to come in the near future - it's all part of the job, which i'd better get back to. I might further outline/review later, but eh, it's been a few busy weeks.
