The title, just so you know, is a completely incoherent combination of three completely unrelated words. An interesting coincidence, this property holds true to any three words, consecutive or not, taken from this blog. Just something to chew over in your mind... with your mind teeth...
So I've been reading a lot of music theory as of late, and I would just like to once again assure my fans that I will not betray my humble roots and will continue to suck. No worries. However, I am having fun with different chord voicings, which I am (you guessed it) not exactly adept at employing. In addition, I've noticed that this is MY first post this year... I'll have to properly disown Phish's post just as I'm sure your parents would love to do to you... the truth hurts... but it's what the people want
Still can't think of a band name... so no real point in doing anything musical since there's just nowhere to go without a chipmunk-squashingly good name. Speaking of which... I have finally begun learning to produce music thanks to the "Music Production Club" (or digital music or something along those lines), so watch out people with good taste: I'm coming for ya... and stuff... god it's hard to blog
So... lastly... RHCP concert tomorrow... tennis as well... it should be fun... if I could write like this for history, the paper would seem much less daunting... I'll de-shit this later
RANDOM FACT
Ancient Romans used to think unibrows were sexy... as if thats odd...

My Ears are Bleeding Ecstasy (The Other Kind)
That was the most amazing concert I've seen... no question
Here's the gist of what I want to blog so I don't forget
The lead singer for the opening act, The Pretenders, was ambiguously hot. She could have been really old and wrinkly, but i couldn't tell
They were good, but no question the who were just too good
solo to who are you was particularly nice
wont get fooled again scream was the best ive heard save POSSIBLY the kids are alright
only way to tell if the songs over: does pete do the splits?
The keyboarder looked really apathetic no matter how crazy the band was. turns out it was actually the keyboard tech subbing for the keyboardist who's in England with his sick wife. pete asked the crowd to pray for him
The first song began on a differently fingered chord than usual, so i didnt recognize it until the 2nd chord: I Can't Explain. Each song was amazing, from that to The Seeker, which was in a slightly different rhythm, then Substitute, and the set list also included the following
Wire and Glass (Tea & Theatre was at the end), Tommy's Overture/Underture, Amazing Journey (after PBW), Pinball Wizard (1st encore), See Me Feel Me, a VERY long My Generation, WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN (Zak Starkey NAILED his drum fills), Baba O'Riley, which was probably the highlight of the show when it came on just after Wire & Glass, Man in a Purple Dress (Daltrey was standing on an amp the whole time, the rest of the band just kinda left cept Pete), WHO ARE YOU, which had some subpar synth but amazing guitar, You Better You Bet, which was awesome (introed with "this is a song i wrote for you" just as who are you was), Eminence Front, introed by "this is a song about people who think they're smarter than they really are," Real Good Lookin Boy, apparently about elvis and written by daltrey partially??!?!!, and Mike's Post Theme, about TV theme songs
This is crude info, but I just want it down. I'll polish it for ya later
Pete tried to spin his guitar in the air after Tea & Theatre, which was superb, and he couldn't quite get a hold of it. It fell and made an awful racket, but then the two standing together was all the more poignant. Pete threw a wad of guitar picks out to the crowd at the end, and as he left, he just said "you sad fuckers"
everyone laughed, and he just waved silently as he left, but one has to wonder just how much he truly meant it. people clamoring for GUITAR PICKS... still, i know i wouldve, and i hope he still loves his fans
If i had to review this concert, it would honestly be a 10/10 JUST because of the sheer amazingness of hearing the who...
