So this past Saturday, I went with bob and jenn to my first concert of the year. It was the Strokes show featuring the Eagels of Death Metal playing the Pageant. My god, what a great show. Granted, I probably was pretty close to being drunk before the show even started. Its tough to keep up with Bob but I sure put up a valient effort. The Eagles of Death metal is a great rock band, not really Death metal, but still rock hard. I plan on picking up their album. They were probably one of the best opening acts I’ve ever seen perform and if you take a look at the list below, they’re up against some stiff competition. The Strokes of course tore it up. I mean, they’re they Strokes, thats what they do. All in all, a great start to the concert year. And with lower level Center Row R tickets to the Dave show, the summer is looking promising. Also, word on the street is that the Counting Crows will be touring with the Goo Goo Dolls this summer. It will be like highschool all over again. ROCK!!
