The Ting Tings

Ok so as I said before...definately digging the electronic pop rock stuff. So I had to buy The Ting Tings tickets to see em in NY. I believe the tickets were 20 bucks, pretty good if you ask me.

So yea I originally bought the ticket for me and a friend, it was suppose to be a birthday present but yea she ended up bailing out on me. She bailed for some lame reason (i think it was her moms bday oops). But yea so I brought my old roommate who enjoyed the show but complained it was a little too loud (really??!! its a concert!!!)

Lets get back to the show. The opening act was a little too much for me. Usually the opening act is similar to the artist you paid to see; however, this time it wasnt that way. It was some guy (yea i cant even remember his name) who was quite good with playing and banging on his guitar. But after a while it was just annoying.

Ok so once he was done The Ting Tings came on to have the greatest performance ever (ok so i exaggerate but man the energy from them is awesome). Ohh by the way I had great seats (well i was standing), I was leaning right on the stage. Oh they were performing in Webster Hall which is the worst venue everrrrr. But back to The Ting Tings!!!! Ok lets see, well the lead singer (KATIE WHITE) was insanely hyped. So hyped that she knocked over that percussion drum thing that she bangs with the stick (sorry for my poor musical instrument terms). So hyped that when she was insanely strumming her guitar she knocked down the microphone stand. So hyped that she actually threw the cowbell on the floor (I was pretty close to grabbing it).

I must say I have never been so ecstatic before. I still love UH HUH HER...but man The Ting Tings just bring out this energy....!!!

Uh huh her- PART TWO...!!!!

Before the ending of the year I got to see UH huh her again, courtesy of my birthday oh and my parents.

Ok so this time I made sure I was not intoxicated. I was not going to mess up my chance to meet Leisha Hailey and Camila Grey this time. I stood online pondering about what I was going to say. Well I purchased a cool zingy (not sure what that means) looking shirt. It had a teradactyl and a robot on it. I decided that I was going to ask Leisha and Cam (we are so cool that i can just abbreviate her name) to pick one of the characters and sign on it. So I am at the table overly excited, shook both of their hands, and put the shirt on the table. I am pretty sure I said they are awesome about twenty times. They were going to sign it, but I lifted my hands and told them to wait. At this moment Camila by mistake marked my right hand (I didnt wash that hand for a while). They listened to my propostion and Leisha signed the teradactyl (oh she also wrote "luv ya") and Cam signed the robot. I thought my idea was quite original but then my friend told them to do the same for her. Bla. I kept saying "dont do it" I also made a face and when I looked at Cam she was laughing. Sigh.

But I must add this concert was better than the first, I guess except for the 10 foot tall guy who was standing right in front of me. Oh the opening act was The Fashion, they were good. They definately have a new fan. Lets hope 2009 is as great a concert year as 2008. THANX UH HUH HER...oh and remember try not to make tickets go up...it went from 15 to 20...hmmm not so bad..but yea...i might just have to start selling ur signed stuff on ebay to keep seeing you guysss....keep the small venues!!! please....
