So I'm heading downtown to catch the rapid back to the west side when I see all these gothy looking pre-teen girls hanging out by the House of Blues. It looks like the Hot Topic Fashion Show and I'm wondering what on earth could possibly be this exciting and I looked up on the marquee and sure enough, Tokio Hotel is playing in my town tonight.
I really don't understand Tokio Hotel at all. Evidently the girls think the singer is pretty hot stuff. He's prettier than I am and that's scary. Teenybopper and glam or whatever the heck it is just doesn't register.
The rest of the band looks like rejects from all those nu-metal bands that were popular back when I was in high school and the music doesn't really sound like anything exciting. Kids these days...
then again, being a fan of heroin addicts who kill themselves isn't that much better
On the other hand, my show was pretty good this morning:
fugazi - by you
the editors - orange crush
the undertones - teenage kicks
matthew sweet - girlfriend
love - my little red book
neil young - rocking in the free world
idlewild - modern way of letting go
joey ramone - what a wonderful world
new order - age of consent
j dilla - ruff draft
natalia y la forquetina - amor es rosa
digable planets - rebirth of slick (cool like dat)
afghan whigs - citi soleil
telescopes - spaceship
curve - fait accompli
50 ft wave - golden ocean
primal scream - step inside this house
althea & donna - uptown top ranking
finley quaye & beth orton - dice
cal tjader - soul sauce (fila brazilia remix)
dj shadow - building steam with a grain of salt
haran - by way of haran
alvin youngblood hart & sharon jones - my soul is a witness
masonic wonders - i called him
john frusciante - omission
ceu - rada (bombay dub orchestra remix)
kristin hersh & michael stipe - your ghost
He may indeed be a handsome devil but he ain't prettier than you. Though to be fair, you don't have that thermonuclear hair.
ReplyDeleteI prefer my heroin addicts to slowly off themselves instead.
Hey, I've heard of some of those acts. I understand young people!
I'm afraid I'm one of those crazy fangirls myself, but I must admit: sometimes it scares the shit out of me as well. On the other hand: I really love them, I really do, and I can't imagine a life without them. I don't know these guys personally, but I do know their music personally and I fell in love with it. You can't even see a single piece of my wall anymore: it's all covered up in TH-posters. I believe I'm obsessed - and that's exactly what scares me: I have no grip on myself. Haha, but I love my guys. I can understand your vision, really. But I believe I'm also one of the oldest fans around :'D I'm 19. BUT. It's not like anyone really cares |D I just had to laugh when I read this piece of writing. Not because I think it's ridiculous, because I think it's funny ^-^. Keep up the good work!
