| Radiohead last night at Shoreline: INCREDIBLE! They played for close to two hours, most from the last three albums, a few from OK Computer, a couple from The Bends and even one from Pablo Honey (it wasn't Creep). It was so incredibly good. They are ridiculously tight, the sound was very clear, our seats were decent, and they had cool video effects. There were a few songs I would have really liked to have heard that they didn't play (Subteranean Homesick Alien, Knives Out, Exit Music) but I can't complain about their set. I can complain about the asshats behind us who sang along loudly (and badly) to a bunch of songs and kept calling somebody on their cellphone and yelling in "CAN YOU HEAR THAT? IT'S IDIOTEQUE! I SAID IT'S IDIOTHEQUE! THIS IS THE BEST SHOW!" etc. His buddy told him that it was obnoxious and stupid, but he went and did it again a few times. "OH MY GOD, THEY'RE PLAYING WOLF AT THE DOOR! THAT'S LIKE MY FAVORITE SONG!!!" and on and on like that. And their beer kept splashing on Anne and I whenever they moved around (which was a lot). This is why they should have two sections at concerts: one for people who really want to pay attention and enjoy the concert, and another for the idiots who want to talk loudly, sing along and jump around like butt monkeys.
Afterwards we went to Sparky's Diner on upper Market. Anne used to always go there after shows when she lived here before. Diners here aren't like diners in the northeast. They're either 50's theme chains or little holes in the wall and I don't think any of them are owned by Greeks out here. This one was a small hipster place with decent but overpriced diner food. I liked it better than "The Diner" in Adams Morgan, DC. |
Politics, film, pop culture, whatever I feel like posting is what you will likely find here. Originally started as the production diary for my first film, this blog has since taken on a life and death and rebirth of its own. Come for the opinions and stay for the sarcasm.
