Of Rocks and Rolls
Sep. 19th, 2004 12:55 amWent to TMBG Concert. I paid over $1000 in bills today, bought just about everything I wanted at the concert, and I still have money in my wallet *and* my bank account. This job thing ROCKS.
The concert itself was nice, but they skipped out on a LOT of their best material. No songs from before 1990. No Istanbul. No Sun is a mass. No Spy (not that I was particularly fond of that one). The show consisted mostly of B-sides from Mink Car (That's why we didn't recognize them as being from Mink Car, they weren't the ones that made that album great) and stuff from The Spine.
The opening act was awesome. Picture Meatloaf with poor self-esteem and an accordion. I bought a t-shirt and 2 discs, The Spine and Future Soundtrack for America, a disc put out by Moveon.org featuring many many bands I like. I'd've bought it just for Blink 182's contribution.

There's a depression out there, beckoning for me. It wants me to believe that the natural state for unrequited love is sadness, that the result of feelings you cannot pursue is pain. I think I know better than that.
