Rockstar Crush
Muse. One of the greatest performances I have ever seen. Period. End of book. End of trilogy. I extended my 15-minute break to 45- to 50-minutes just so I could experience every last miniscule note created by the band. Muse bent you over and fucked you explosively in the ass with their powerful music and left you begging for more. Crude analogy, yes, but it’s the best I can do. The songs they preformed consisted of Hysteria, Butterflies and Hurricanes and Stockholm Syndrome. Wow. Just…wow. I want more. They blew the audience, and me, away.
I first heard Mogwai during Curiosa, and I liked. A lot. Interpol also put on a great performance, along with The Rapture. The Cure, on the other hand, were somewhat disappointing. I don’t know how to explain it, but they just were. Methinks it was due to me not knowing what to expect. Oh well. The Cure played Numb, which was one of my favourite Cure songs, so that much was satisfying.
So, what did we learn? Muse stole the show.

The job isn't really that glorious. This was the only show I actually enjoyed to watch/listen. When there's a shitty show you have to endure, like Edgefest, it sucks a lot of ass. Also, I still have to deal with hostile customers who are whining for booze when they missed last call. But I guess the $109 I grabbed for tips made up for that... This would be a better job if I could work more often than not--once every three weeks doesn't cut much when it comes to making money. Also, it can be quite boring, tedious and gross, or busy, hectic (due to the relentless customers) and gross.
