Wyclef Jean, November 5th, Fox Studios Lot, Century City

Posted by Wordtothemothership on 23/11/2007 at 08:58 PM

Wyclef Jean's hardcore fans meet Yahoo employees and significant others!! Bad dancing ensues. It wasn't too hard to pick out who from the crowd was from Yahoo. And I'm pretty sure my lanky white kid frame sold me out pretty quickly. But Wyclef didn't seem to mind. I fully expected

Rogue Wave, October 11th, El Rey Theater, Los Angeles

One of out five of the guys looked normal. There was the lefty bassist in khakis. THe balding drummer with the frizzy hair. The other (grey-haired) guy in khakis. And then there was orange man. Orange slacks. Orange suit. Orange tie. You can't make this stuff up. The lead singer (Read more)

Oh No! Oh My!, September 30th, Barnsdall Art Park, Los Angeles

Posted by Wordtothemothership on 23/10/2007 at 08:23 AM

After a string of dark, sweaty, late-night shows, I was ready for a nice Sunday afternoon concert in the park. I hadn't been up to Barnsdall, but looking out over all of Hollywood, I was glad it was one of those rare days in LA when you didn't feel like

Arctic Monkeys, September 25th, Hollywood Palladium, Los Angeles, CA

Arctic Monkeys Palladium.jpgI guess the Arctic Monkeys didn't like us.  After a surprising loud (punk!) set, they stormed off the stage without even considering an encore. It was immediate: last note played, house lights came on. Usually I can tell when the band is pissed at the crowd, but Alex Turner's Yorkshire

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, September 19th, Troubadour, Los Angeles

CYHSY Troubadour.jpgThe problem with LA is that you need to buy tickets months in advance for most shows. There are just too many people in this town and shows sell out quickly. The problem with my job is that I have no idea whether I'll be in LA two weeks from

Missing Out (or am I?), Spoon and Wolf Parade, Los Angeles

Posted by Wordtothemothership on 13/09/2007 at 09:42 PM

I want to complain about missing two rad shows this week, but I really can`t. Yes, I paid a lot of money for tickets to see Spoon on Monday and Wolf Parade on Thursday. Yes, those are two of my favorite bands. Yes, I haven`t been to a show in

Tiesto, August 12th, Rehab @ Hard Rock Hotel, Las Vegas

Posted by Wordtothemothership on 04/09/2007 at 12:34 PM

I've been to shows at some interesting venues. Skate parks, churches, fairs, converted movie theaters, basements, yards, etc. But I'm pretty sure that a pool was not on the list. After missing The High Strung at the Las Vegas Public Library--another strange venue--a day earlier, I was ready for a
