Cheesy Brit Pop - Oi!!!












After seeing the Ting-tings tonight I have realized two things:

1. The Brits love their vocal harmonies and props to them for that, but please leave your pre-packaged pop crap where it belongs. In Wales. If you take back the Ting-Tings we'll take back Soulja Boy. Deal?

The Ting Tings



2. I'm glad I didn't pay to watch two people fuck around on loop peddles, come on, how hard is it to get a full band. Same goes for the opening act Solid Gold. I saw them at the Camel Loft a few months ago and really liked it, but please find a live drummer, pre-programmed loop boxes suck, it's like your playing to a metronome oh wait thats right you are. Drums, bass, guitar, thats everything you need, at least Dosh plays all of them himself and sequences as he goes. Impressive.
