let's do this like a prison break

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting Last night was the Yeah Yeah Yeahs- as you can imagine an energetic show that has left me hoarse and sore from moshing. everyone left with one of two thoughts- 1) i want to grow up to be Karen O or 2) i want to have karen o's babies...and maybe you can do both.

one small rant- if you don't like moshing, get out of the front. if you're going to stand around and be emo, i'm going to crash into you all the harder- i don't care how hard you looked for your urban outfitter's bargain bin find, or that your carefully constructed hipster haircut is getting ruffled. i especially hate it when the boyfriends do the protective arm-cage around their distraught, fragile hipster. again, if you want to stand around and frown, go home and listen to your expensive hi-fi, or get towards the back, because i'm there to jump around. don't let my converse shoes fool you- i'm a rocker, and i rock out.

then to kerby lane for an abominable amount of queso and chips with the usual crowd. after that, a shower-- the sign of a good show is when you're not sure if the sweat you're covered with is your's or a stranger's-- and then the dive into bed. yay saturday night. boo the morning after, composed of papers and laundry. but at least i've grabbed hold of a thesis and am running with it. ;] oh yeah, and clean clothes are nice, too.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be the person who gets the black eye, broken ankle, and bloody nose at the rock show? You wish you could achieve that sort of utter bliss in the mosh pit. oh yes.

Silly Lizzy, mass pogoing isn't moshing! Most excellent show though. The fragile hipster couples were probably there just to hear "their" song, 'cause they don't love you like I love youuu...and Jen always causes more damage than she gets. She once lost both shoes!
