Regina Spektor was amazing. Her voice is so incredible and she did a good mix of full band, solo piano, solo guitar, keyboard, solo solo, and ended on a country song haha. She was really embarressed and blushing at how loved she was and was thanking the audience and being friendly all the time.

The crowd though. Man, WHAT THE FUCK. San Diego is douchebag central after about 10pm it seems. Everyone was drunk as fuck. I've never seen so many people drunk at a concert. And I don't mean drunk like me and you, but drunk like how the fuck is this guy standing and what is he doing here and not getting kicked out of a Vegas club. Meanwhile during the concert the entire back by the bar sounded like that LOUD CROWD TALKING NOISE you have on sound effect cds. This was the first concert I've been to where at the start of every song there were tons of "Shhhhh!!!!" It was like being in college again. I mean did you really pay $35 to go to the house of blues so you could sit at the back by the bar and pick up on drunk girls/guys while talking really loud and not giving a shit about the musician playing? It seems there is a good crowd of San Diego douchebags who do exactly that!

Then you had the part where a dude (who is probably on drugs; it seems a lot of people at the show were on drugs) walks into the vip seating area next to the soundboard. Steals a vip person's seat. Stands up and lights a cigarette (this is an indoor downstairs show; no smoking of course cause everyone would die in a fire) and just stands and casually smokes and puffs smoke into the air during the show while holding his lit cig at his side until 3 mins later security walks up to him, grabs his cig and throws it on the ground stepping on it and then grabs him and throws his ass out of the place. I heard elsewhere in the show there was a whole group lighting cigarettes who almost set the place on fire before getting thrown out.

After the show it was drunk city. Everyone walking on the streets would go up to you and high five you and be like WE'RE SO WASTEDDDD, DUDE WHAT'S YOUR NAME. YO PRETTY GIRL I'D HIT YA. I'm so glad I didn't end up going to Western Law School in Downtown San Diego.

Sure, but she's not trying to sell herself as the cute girl pop idol angle so it's not an issue.

news flash: "cute pop girl idols" go back stage, swear about how much they hate their creepy-ass fans, snort cocaine off of dead fetuses, and get impossibly assholish and muscular men to run an anal train on them all night after the show.

Yeah, it's not bad. I'm not a big fan of The Strokes but this has a few decent songs. Love the single, 11th Dimension.

It's not as good as I was expecting with all the hype that's been going around. It's a wonder he was able to pull it off as often as he does though, especially on that single.

Sometimes it uses a little too much keyboard, a little too much guitar in parts where the album doesn't need it. The second half of the album is significantly worse than the first half. It's fun though. Really miss a legitimate Strokes release though :'(

Do you agree the second half is significantly worse than the first? Not saying the second half is bad or anything, just not as good?

Robo · « **Reply #1213 on:** October 29, 2009, 07:09:35 PM »

If only because the first half is SO GOOD. I do really like Glass and Tourist, though.

He's improved as a singer a hell of a lot over the years, as evidenced by that track. I didn't know he could move his voice around like that.

Song reminds me of when Target ads have cheesy "hip" music to attract the 20-somthing demographic.

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #1220 on:** October 30, 2009, 02:11:11 AM »

To be honest, 11th Dimension isn't anywhere near the strongest song on the album.

THAT song is.

I did a total 180 on Two Suns a couple of days ago. I'm really not sure why I didn't love it in the first place -- it's like a girly, more dance-oriented TV on the Radio album!

omgggg

Regarding the Casablancas album: I'm not really feeling the more synth-y stuff, especially Left & Right in the Dark and River of Brakelights

I agree that 4 Chords of the Apocalypse is easily the best track on the album, even though I think it's about a minute too long

this is great, I haven't listened to whole BoC albums in a few years, besides when campfire headphase came out. and that album is kinda so-so compared to Music Has the Right to Children and Geogaddi. I think I'll track down Bocmaxima and Twoism...

yeah, I had Bocmaxima, Twoism, and something unlabeled back in the day...gonna dl em again right now in fact. I remember it being a little more retro synthy, but a little less interestingly produced. I still think Music and Geogaddi are the sweet spot (Campfire Headphase is just not nearly as interesting or challenging, though it is very chill.)

I was thinking about snatching them from What, but gahh ratio and I can't seed right now. I guess I'll just grab them from Megaupload or something.

I remember enjoying Black Paris, but I kinda forgot about them honestly. That airy sound they have never sticks with me, but it is great for falling asleep to. Anyway, it's better than Black Paris?

Was looking over iTunes essentials "Blue Eyed Soul" and was reminded of Lisa Stansfield (you probably know her "All Around the World" track). God she was gorgeous... she's aged gracefully too (which isn't surprising). She's got a very pure voice.
