SPOON!
I went to the Spoon show at the Fillmore lastnight w/ my friend Kristin - and it RAAAWKED!!!!
I hadn't heard much of them before seeing their show, which sometimes I don't like cuz I dig going to shows where I can belt out the lyrics or atleast know when a hard core drum solo is coming up in the song. But lastnight's show was nothing short of impressive. I can't WAIT to get their CD's - I want all of them! I wanna get into their old stuff and the new stuff to really get a feel for the band, where they've come from and how their original sound from years ago has matured into what they're kickin out today. There were a number of songs they played lastnight that I can't wait to find on their records.
addition: I forgot to also say that the lead singer, Britt Daniels, totally rocked my world. His spastic movements were so hot to me... I sat mesmerized watching him move about, bangin his head and stroking his guitar. aaawww yaaa
Kristin has all kinds of hookups around the Fillmore, too. So being the rockstar that she is, shortly after we'd been standing upstairs we got handed magic passes to go sit in one of the VIP booths in the back of the house. Great view of the stage and bobbing heads jammin in the audience - and great sound!!
Such an awesome night. May this be a reminder to all of you - go check out new music in this city all the time!!!!! :)
