one bad apple...
almost singlehandedly ruined the TOOL concert saturday night. the band finally comes on stage after a long intermission. they start out rockin! then, some yahoo threw a bottle at maynard's head. maynard's response: he left the stage, while the band played on. for the second song he was also mostly absent. the only thing, no one knew what was going on. not until he explained himself after the second song. maynard was totally justified in his response. but it just seemed to sap the energy from the crowd. they ended up playing for over 2 hours. they played all their great tunes, and almost every song included extra jams. it was sweet, but the energy just wasn't there. my buddy i went with has seen TOOL 3 times now on this tour, and said saturday night was the worst of the 3. of course, being the worst of the 3 shouldn't be taken the wrong way. neither of us have been to concert we enjoyed more than our worst TOOL concert. even the long wait in line for the urinals was fun, just bs'ing with the people in line. the whole time, i only saw 2 angry people, no fights or any stupid stuff going on, other than the bottle throwing incident.
speaking of concerts, i am going to another one tomorrow night at plush. i do not know the name of the band, but my buddy made a good sales pitch on them. it doesn't start till 9 or 10. wednesday at work will be fun.
i can't belive it, i just watched an episode of FRIENDS i have never seen before.
that wasn't as cool as friday night (as cool as being alone on a friday night watching tv can be). tvland ran a mini marathon of original star trek episodes.
