I attended a show last night at some one story house/business building out on North Adams street. We got there and there were already cops giving the tenants a warning for being too loud, which is funny because the show hadn't even started yet. So I'm thinking this'll be quick, good thing it's free. So we walk in to the house and immediately get pounded in the face with one hundred degree body heat and the faint scent of body odor...something that was expected of. I look over to the left front corner of the house where the band is playing and on a small fold-up table there are some odd looking gameboy, video game fabrications used as instruments. I've heard of things like these before, a more informal, not-as-glamorous crystal castles setup maybe?? So a guy with a lime green tie and a pink bandanna starts screaming something that I cannot make out. I did get that the one man band was called Radioshock (from Brooklyn). The sound made me feel as if I were in an old Atari video game. It wasn't brilliant, but it wasn't bad. It was mediocre, something not to take too seriously. I had fun though, especially yelling "trapper keeper" with Keith during the song "trapper keeper". Mosh pits started to happen, which are dumb may I add, and Radioshock finished his last song. Sweat city. Unfortunately the show ended quickly afterwards due to the cops coming for the second time. Monday night shows=not a very good idea. We all walked to the park afterwards where we talked about guns and watched Keith and Rachel lick peoples eyeballs... Weirdest thing ever!
