SOME LIKE IT HOT

"It's not how long you wait it's who you're waiting for!"

"Story of my life. I always get the fuzzy end of the lollipop."

"We're up the creek and you want to hock the paddle!"

"All right, driver, once around the park, slowly, and keep your eyes on the road."

Ingrid Michaelson @ The El Rey Theater

its been six months and twenty nine days since the beginning of the start of 2008 and ever since then i made sort of a resolution to go to one concert a week...so if my cross multiplication is correct six months and twenty nine days are about 28 weeks...and according to blogger.com i have about 25 posts..give or take a concert or two i'm on track to a concert a week...maybe? no? whatever i'm probably doing better than most new years resolutionists...



since the new year i've seen ingrid michaelson twice...obsessed? nope. fan? yep. unfortunately she's been traveling around touring around the country and hasn't had time to record a new album so one is expected to hear the same ol' songs from the one and only album...and until recently the same jokes...

despite the same ol' same ol' i was hoping to hear her version of this favorite:


however she didn't and opted with a death cab for cutie song..which i didn't really recognize since i'm not familiar with death cab...in any event a great show....and if your somewhere in the midwest in the summer try to check her out...if not she's opening for the dave matthew's band through the fall..

enjoy!

Thievery Corporation @ The Hollywood Bowl

I can't pass up an evening at the Hollywood Bowl. if you haven't been to the Hollywood Bowl you should be ashamed of yourself...don't even think of calling yourself an angelino if you haven't...most people are quick to say that Los Angeles has no culture...

they obviously haven't made it to the Hollywood Bowl...probably haven't even attempted to step outside their studio bachelor or out of Azeroth....in any event The Hollywood Bowl is an epicenter of music....and the best part you can enjoy all good sounds underneath the stars of Heaven and your favorite bottle from your nearest Trader Joes/Whole Foods aisle...it was a dog day kind of afternoon in Los Angeles...so i brought in lemonade....MIKE'S HARD LEMONADE...i felt sorta lowbrow in comparison but it was hot and i needed something refreshing rather something dry and acidic...

i can't say i know too much about thievery corporation but if you enjoy what wikipedia describes as "dub, acid jazz, Indian classical and Brazilian (such as bossa nova) fused together with a lounge aesthetic" then you'll really enjoy Thievery Corporation. as i did...



highly recommended if you're in the right state of mind...however if the rest of your group is sitting behind you to your right or left just be careful no sudden looks directly behind you...their could be a surprise waiting for you...in thee form of a crotch...

SUPERDRAG! @ The Troubadour - May 29, 2008

can't say that i knew the music of Superdrag before the concert...but from the looks of everyone else the music is not only inspiring but really really good...maybe at my second Superdrag concert i'll be able to let you know how i felt about the music..but honestly I can't remember most of it (it was a busy week at work).

Dethklok @ The Wiltern

you won't believe where I'm at...
