Re: 2009-08-07 Fox Theatre in Oakland, CA
i dont know why you think people wouldnt talk at a concert. you're around people. it's what they do when you're sharing an experience. you want a happy place go close your eyes in a listening booth or something.

anyway i had a great time. i dont think i had much for talkers around me and i danced myself sore (as much as being in the front would allow me anyway). met TheBang and it was rad. some putz got the last setlist a few seconds before i did but i got to see one anyway and it was kinda neat.

as far as the show goes i think it was the most solid of the other 4 i've been to. i didnt lose myself like how i usually do out of sheer excitement (this is the 5th go-around by now), but i felt like it was the most substantial gig of theirs i've been to. usually it was either that they'd take about 20-30 minutes to feel as if there was a real groove happening, or that they'd start off huge and settle into that groove continuously until the end. but this one just felt like one after the other. bang. bang. bang. everything flew off the handle, everything harder. great night.

i take back what i said about you do scribble.
