More to the fact, while most summers are normally devoid of concerts I'm pumped to see. This summer has been jam packed full of them. In the last week I jumped in on Kid Sister & GANG, unfortunately I missed majority of the xPonential festival which had some real good acts over 3 days, saw the spectacle that is Die Antwoord while being pleasantly surprised by Midnight Juggernauts at Vuvuzelafest 2k10, sweated my ass off at Deadmau5 (he apparently plays better when he's angry - Adv. Rusko), and capped it off by perusing the mart at the Punk Rock festival. Some general thoughts:
- GANG played a kick ass set which included a cover of "Killing in the Name Of". You pull off Rage, you win in my book. Kid Sister will be a big deal soon enough, IMO.
- I'm over Die Antwoord, I'll admit I bought into the schtick but after Making Time on Friday, I have no doubt that they are not for real. God bless the hype machine built around the Ninja & Co. but it's not cutting it. Don't agree and think their sliced bread good, go read someone who may/may not also care.
- Wearing an American flag mau5head was a bunch of dreams come true all at once. They include loving/repping America hardcore, wearing costumes for no reason, and generally being the most awesome you can be at all times. And yes, that's a Triple P shirt, that is how I roll.
