Rock Show!

April 23, 2009 12:02 AM

helsadilla, R-Mac, and the girl R-Mac's seeing (is she at nickname status yet? I don't know) went to the Annex to see some heavy-metal rock show thing tonight. It was fun.

The first band consisted of four women. Everyone agreed that several of the women were really attractive, but we couldn't agree on which ones were and which ones weren't. Based on the fact that they all played Gibson instruments (including the bassist--when was the last time you saw a Gibson bass used in a hard-rock setting?) and that they all had other expensive backup instruments, I was suspicious. It just seemed to ridiculous to me that there would be an all-girl heavy-metal band with a super-hot, in my opinion, singer and some hot other girls. Also, the lead guitarist was pretty good. But, anyway, the whole thing seemed like a heavy-metal version of the Monkees to me.

Oh, and what was the all-girl hard-rock band called? Cockpit, of course.

They were just the opening band, though. The main act was a band called The Last Vegas. I was very impressed by the two guitarists and the drummer. The lead singer brought nothing new to the table at all. And the bassist was a fucking hyperdouche. I think R-Mac said it best when he opined that they sounded like a mix of AC/DC, Guns 'n' Roses, and Motley Crue. They were entertaining but not good.

The best part of the whole thing, though, was that chelsadilla had never been to a rock show before. I think she was genuinely scared at times. It was sort of hilarious.

okay, the ONLY time I was actually scared was...okay, well, two times. the lady screamers were - admit it - kind of terrifying. i'm still confident that any one of them could and would have tackled me if i'd raised an eyebrow at them (but i was ok, what with the whole avoiding eye contact thing). and then when that shimmy-ing lead singer jumped off the stage - done. shakin in my boots. the man (boy? lady?) could out shimmy...someone who shimmies a lot.
