This is who I got dragged to see Tuesday night. (I owe my girlfriend, I’ve brought her to some shows that she didn’t want to see, so it was fitting that I went with her……it is her favorite band)
They’re called ‘Cocorosie‘ and they’re every hipsters favorite band. It was a ’star-studded’ event full of people who think they’re someone because of the way they dress!!
Cocorosie: A woman who is an trained opera singer, and another one that raps…the one that raps has this weird voice that if Dr. Drew met her, he’d probably ask her what happened to her in her childhood.
But first the opening band… I don’t know what their name is, but I am glad that I don’t for their sake. At one point the drummer/backup singer is checking her mic and says, ‘wow…this is awkward’… I said ‘well don’t be in a band then…’
I’ve got a problem with ‘bands’ who have an Apple Laptop on their stage, and 95% of their live performance comes from hitting a space bar on their iTunes! Seriously. The drums, the piano, the vocals, the backing vocals, the bass, ALL pre-recorded, all they were doing was accenting their iTunes track of their song with what they were doing live. It was awful…..Awful that these little bitches are touring the country being ‘uncomfortable’ on stage, and literally just pushing play on their iTunes to perform a show….
Makes me so mad…there are so many other talented bands out there…
Anyways, Cocorosie, is weird…you see them pictured above, and whatever you think they sound like, they do. My girlfriend made us stand almost front row, and I found it funny that there was a fully grey-haired man standing in the front, so I took a pic
They were fine….My girlfriend loved it, so if I said I hated it at all it would have ruined her night, and I’m not into doing that at all. They have 2 catchy-kind of songs, but after playing an hour and a half, we were kinda over it…….. The weird part was when I turned around, that place was packed…. I knew the show was sold out, but I hadn’t seen something sooooo full indoors, in a long time.
I guess I am the only one there that didn’t get it…..People were having a religious experience…. I was saying, ‘why are you wearing a skirt made of wig hair?!’
