CRYSTAL CASTLES !

When i found out they were playing, i pretty much wet myself with excitement. Luckily for me i got a ticket for le freee from a dear friend. I;d heard, namely from Andrew. S, that Alice from Crystal Castles was capable of riots and threw a really big show. It;s all true, well without the riot.

We managed to get a spot upstairs at Capitol overlooking the stage, i was wearing these big high heels and they were half an hour late. I started getting a bit grrrrrrrrrrrrry. When they finally came on, i literally went WOAH ZOMG AMAZING BIG LIGHTS YEH HOTNESS OF BAND ! They really started off with a bang, strobe lights were going off in big spurts, i wasn;t drunk nor on any illegal substances (they;re illegal gosh !) but that first song did something of the sort that substances could produce. It blew me away.

Alice, she looks fucked up, as in oh em gee is she overdosing ? on videos i;ve seen, but she was lyk that, it wasn;t played up, it was real. Half the time i was terrified that she was about to die, the other half was thinking wow this is a good show. She jumped around, stood on the drum kit, broke the fallback speakers (repeatedly), kicked off a security guard from grabbing her out of the audience, hit people behind the stage, lay on the floor, smacked microphones into the broken speakers, pushed those speakers to the floor (the sound guy ended up giving up and leaving) ha !, she was literally fucking crazy. She sent the mosh pit crazy, it was so fucking hot in Capitol, to be pushed against a number of other people, i don;t know how anyone survived that heat and pushing, but people endured it and loved the show. Whenever Alice was in the audience, she copped a good feel. Boys.

It was really a show, a t-shirt was even purchased, i wear it proud. Listen to airwar, it;s my favourite track off the album. Those who weren;t there, totally missed out. It was fucking awesome.

On more serious news, this credit crunch fucking sucks.

Sincerely yours,
Natasha.
