Last night was my first show out since the state-wide smoking ban. Elekibass took the stage and blew everyone away with their brilliant use of instruments and smart showsmanship.
Hmmm's in no particular order:
- When did cellphones infiltrated our society in such a way that grunge hippies, complete with dredlocks and no shoes, begin to not only own one, but bring them to shows to obsessively check them and re-check them for missed phone calls?
- When did it become ok to have entire conversations during a music performance? Has it also become acceptable to lay the smack down when a group of pearl-laden chicken posse starts to pass around their emo glasses for all in the group to try on and critique ("oh baby, you look so cute") in between catch up conversations ("what have you been up to...blah, blah the other day...blah blah...") smack in the middle of a rocking set by a pretty awesome band?
- Do people with insane b.o. know they have insane b.o.?
- When did skagging become the hip thing to do at an indie rock show?
- When did extreme dancing of any type become hip at any indie rock show?
