i have worked like crazy this week, and last night the hubster and I went to see the Faint play in pomona.
admittedly, I havent been to a "show" in over 10 years. concerts I go to about once a year. But nothing like this tiny venue in a really long time. It started off great, I was standing right behind this tiny chick who was right behind the railing in the very front. There was a Dj for an hour, and that was kind of boring. Then a band called jaguar love came on and i had no idea who they were.
Then the faint came on and i was smashed within an inch of my life and my right arm is a mass of bruises from the uber scrawny emo boi next to me. He decided that instead of just dropping his arms to his sides, he would repeatedly jab me with his bony ass elbow. Half way through the first song some crowd surfing scenster landed on my husbands head, knocking his glasses off(which of course were obliterated). Thats when we decided to shove our way back and get to where we could breathe. The rest of the show was awesome. And the venue was so small that you could see from everywhere.
I can't wait till this band hits it big. they are soooo good. even live, which is awesome.
If you like funky, weird, technoy stuff, i highly recommend them. the faint, check them out.
as for being anywhere near the front at a "show" ever again, Im just too damned old for that shit. heh.
when we were up front
from the back.
I took this with my stupid phone. for some reason it looks like the place was bigger in the photos. Im taking my nice camera to the show in san diego tomorrow!
oh and this was jaguar love
