Title: Guess who I just saw live.
Post by: Latrobe on July 16, 2010, 04:47:52 AM
That's right, Andrew W.K.! The Party King himself!  :rock

When I heard he was going on tour for the first time since 2003 I just had to get tickets for the Warped Tour, since I've only heard about his crazy concerts. I was not disappointed. If you have not been to, or at least seen, one of his live shows, it is the craziest stuff you will ever see. Before they even started the show someone had started a bottle/shoe fight in the crowd (most fun I've had in a crowd ever). During the concert there was constantly 20 or more people crowd surfing with the largest mosh pit ever going in the middle (of course I had to get my fill of that  :) ). The highlight moment for me throughout the show was when Andrew W.K. threw his shirt into the crowd and I actually got a hold of it! We wrestled for it for a good 2 minutes in a four way fight, then thought we'd decided who gets it with rock, paper, scissor ( :rofl ). Needless to say that ended in a tie and we went back to wrestling. Unfortunately, the security guard thought it was getting too dangerous or something because he reached in and stole it from us. We finished the concert with one final grand song, and an even larger mosh pit than before.

Even though I didn't get the T-shirt my luck was not about to run out. As I was walking out the back way to the parking lot after the show, I just happened to bump into Andrew W.K. himself! He was kind enough to sign my poster, and take a picture with me! When I told him I was in the fight for his shirt, he said "Well, Thank you for participating in that."  :lol He's such a cool guy.

How could you not have heard of him!? He writes music on partying all the time and just having a good time. He's basically the coolest guy on Earth  :D

Here's him being interviewed by the worlds youngest interviewer  :)

Who he?

 :headscratch:

Bubblegum music. Reminds me of a heavier version of The Bay City Rollers

Really cool stuff if your 14-15.
I just listened to 3 of his songs at random. Each one sounded remarkably like the last. Which unfortunately seems to be pretty common in music these days.

Lack of originality. Either bands are copying each other. Or find one specific sound that sounds cool in one song so they use pretty much the same thing in all their music.

I feel sorry for kids these days. Most of their music is little more then copycat. And most of that with a few exceptions, either sucks or wont stand the test of time.

Ain't that the truth.
