I def wanna see Rae this time if he tours, but I dunno man, rap shows look like they blow dick

did waters just do floyd stuff or did he do selections from his mind-numbingly awful solo albums?

most rap shows i've gone to have blown except for outkast...seems like a waste of money to watch dudes yell their lyrics while a bored and underworked dj plays backing tracks.

[Art Vandelay]

adding Robert Plant to the list tomorrow night. can't wait

[STYLE]

I've gone to a shitload of music festivals, like 15 taste of chicagos and 5 atl midtown music fests and a bunch of others in between like rock the bells. you get a chance to see a whole lot of good acts in one place so my list is all over the place.
