You know what i like to do late at night? Eh? Eh?
Go to gigs.
So I went that Fbi radio fundraiser on Thursday night. Freakin' awesome.
Four bands played and they were ALL GOOD. When does that happen? When? Really? (Let's not include festivals here, let's not fool ourselves with some highly organised lineups.)
Anyways I got there three quarters of the way through Megastick Fanfare, who were lovely.
They sounded really nice, no real killer songs but, i didn't hear the whole set so they may have had some earlier. I did however have the urge to hug them after the set. Unnatural? Maybe. You judgin'?
Then were the Magnetic Heads. WELL HELLOOOO.
Lot of love here. Like a lot. A LOT.
Even though they seemed to be acting like they were caught half way through dinner and had to rush unprepared on stage I really liked them. Kind of added to the charm. They sounded awesome. If you've ever heard their singles on Fbi, don't really compare, best to go see them.
After them was The Maladies.
It seemed most came for the Maladies, they hogged the audience on the night.
Yes, they had power behind them.
They fit together connecter pens. Guitars, Bass, Drums, Vocals- everything was rad...just one thing though...
I felt like I was watching Liza Minelli with the vocalists performance... something about the hands and the body movement and the facial expressions. Cabaret anyone? Maybe Mariah Carey...or whitney Housten.
Yeah, not sure if anyone else picked that up...maybe it's just me. Even though, they did have the crowd in their palms.
Last on was the Ripping Dylans. These guys were who I went there for.
By the fourth song in the set, I was transfixed.
The kind of transfixed where you're not sure if what your watching is totally retarded or freakin' awesome.
Fortunately for them, I'm leaning towards FREAKIN' AWESOME. Welcome everyone to your new flavour of the year.
I decided this in a song called 'Spangled Spider'?? (Yeah... not sure if that's wrong.) The drums were kick ass. I can't describe it. Then in one of the next tracks (I'm not your casanova?) a guitar riff had my jaw dropping. I just want a cd so bad now.
These guys just melded into a ball of fandom for me. I was kind of hesitant at the start because I've been waiting to see them for ages which usually means I'll be disappointed. Not so fortunately.
Whilst many had left by that point (my friends included...booo) I can safetly say, they missed out.
Fbi really did a great job. I had an awesome time.

Youtube Music
Yooouuuttuuubbbbeeee update.
Was just shown this awesome Yotube feature they've added.
If you type in www.youtube.com/disco you can type in your fav artist and youtube will combine a massive playlist of songs by that artist. It will even show what it considers to be related artists.
Doesn't seem to show minor artists but it's still radalicious.
Yaha.
Check it out.

Everything Everything...again
My Kz, Ur BF. (my keys, your boyfriend for those who don't use text speak)
MEEEEWWWWW. Mew
Mew. MEW. MMEEWWWWWW.
Sounds like an animal sound to me. One that then happens to make delightful music.
Can you imagine a class of small children when asked what sound a Mew makes. They would all start singing and playing wonderfully. It'd be like a less scary scene of Alice in Wonderland. Nice visuals, lovely music and a dreamy feel in the air.
I wasn't expecting much when I saw an article that hyped them up.
Needless to say I definately got more than expected. But, wow. These guys are awesome. I'm practically shocked.
Been awhile since my last mini-obsession. Not one bad song on their myspace.
Mew- Comforting Sounds
Mew- Reaper Beater
