a couple weeks ago daniel and i went to see the sounds at fitzgerald’s. the first time we saw them, a couple years ago, the opening bands were hilarious and amazing. [see: foxy shizam and semi-precious weapons]. foxy featured extremely animated band members, with a very high jumping lead singer. weapons was all about the transvestite lead singer – who even had a costume change on stage. we were quoting this guy for weeks. 🙂
the show we recently saw was a bit low key. i enjoyed the limousines. a two man band. not as entertaining as the last openers we saw, but really good music – and covers 🙂
daniel and i actually enjoyed the limousines a tad more than the sounds performance. i feel like once you see one show you’ve seen ’em all. i didn’t like maja strutting out with a cigarette in her mouth the first time, and i didn’t like it this time. whatever. she is still extremely adorable…and those legs! 🙂
i will always have a special place in my heart for the sounds. even if i’m kinda bored with the live scene. <3
before i ever went to a sounds concert, i made this video. hello 2006 roxy. can you come back??
lol, i love your videos. =]
I saw The Sounds for the first time in 2005! I was working on the Vans Warped Tour 🙂 Maja is such a heartbreaker.
I love everything about this post, from the bands mentioned right down to the Rocky Horror shirt. 🙂
eef– aw, thanks lady! i love your drawings 😀
velvet– too cool! i went to warped tour houston in 2001…wish they were there!
sonya– thank you! glad we have things in common 🙂
