Drunken Concerts?? The Madness

Ok, ok.

So my post is a little bit later than expected. Not that there is actually anyone who actually reads my page. ok.

The Clicks.

I became a fan after hearing their song on a show called The L Word. Have you heard of it? Well yea it is, well was (it ended this year) a television show (drama not that reality crap) that revolved around the lives of Lesbians, bisexuals, some male identified lesbians, straight men who installed cameras in his lesbian roommates house so that he could record them, def lesbians, etc.


Anyways so I decided how else can I meet Lesbians. Thats right, go to a concert that lesbians will be at.

HENCE

The Cliks.


Once again I have a love for concerts that cost less than 20 bucks. This concert cost ten.

Ok so to fill you in. I invited one friend to go. Got tickets. She bailed. So I got another friend to go. Oh the friend that came is the one who bailed on the TIng Tings. But yea.


On that day, I didnt eat at all. I wanted to make sure to fit into my skinnys jeans.

It fit perfect, however; the lack of food in my system caused me to become a tad bid tipsy.


Two long island ice teas, and some of my friends Cranberry and Vodka caused me to be completely out of it.


Anyways awesome concert.

I kinda always say that.

But yea.

Was completely in the front. Jumping around like crazy to the music with my 4 in wedge sneakers. Looking to my left realizing there was some chick texting someone. Waved my hands in her face, got a nasty look. Looked to my right. Another chick, more wasted then me, leaning on the speakers.



Oh I must not forget. The opening act PLUSHGUN. Weird, Funky, Poppy, sound like Postal Service band. They are pretty good. Got them to sign their cd.


Of course i got The Cliks to sign a Cd and the shirt that I purchased (which was small dam drunkeness).


Ok ok ok.

So after the concert (which ended pretty early).

I went outside and threw my marker (which the cliks and plushgun used to sign my shirt, i was overly excited. My mother doesnt know that I volunarily threw her marker. She thinks I lost it. HENCE her not lending me things.) and ran into two chicks. Tia and Kathy.


So apparently I made a drunken fool of myself. But eventually once my friend came outside she talked to them and they invited us to some club. We all leave together and then once inside the station, I realize I cant find my wallet. Yea. So me and my friend (she saved my ass a bunch of times that day) went back to where the concert was (Oh forgot to mention it was at Mercury Lounge) and can you believe that my friend found my wallet. I guess the big guy upstairs actually likes me.


Well we head to the club. My friend was off somewhere with some photographer. Doing her own thing. I have pictures of that too but maybe I'll just stick with the concert pictures.


Well yea so me and Kathy talked. Ok well we didnt really talk. Unless talking is locking lips the entire night then yea. I dont know if she would like me typing that on my blog. But who cares. We are in love. Well now we are. Apparently she thought I was a child that first week before our date (could be because I got drunk two more times that week and left her a bunch of voicemails). But yea that doesnt matter now.


ANYWAYS.......Here are the pictures from

The Cliks...holy shit..forgot to mention CYNDI LAUPER WAS THERE AND I GOT A PICTURE WITH HER...well yea The CLiks, Cyndi Lauper, Plushgun, and the Love of my life (never to early to say it)..

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....!!!
