Interpol Rollcall

[ggw]

Rhett's just jealous because he went to some fourth-rate state school.

and you would have to hear past it, not see past it  

i wasn't talking about their music, genius. the music is still solid. i was talking about figuratively looking past the idea of a once-cultish indie band gaining a sizeable fanbase that may include a large number of unintelligent boors.

and, i meant "bores" not "boors"...before someone nitpicks.

Sugar "T" - I think the guy you pushed upright was Brandon - the keyboardist from SM.  He's not a big dude:  what d-bag would pick on him? BTW:  what was your fav. CD  everyone was raving about?

 But you both voted for BUSH.  Funny, eh?

[Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer]

Wrong. Though I like bush, I voted for Kerry.

 Liking Bush is in your nature.

The guy almost fell over downstairs..he was pretty tall & sans the spoofy hair, so me thinks it's not him. The cd I passed to Sonick? Something I picked up in Denver. I don't like it (sounds like Good Charlotte) but I brought some back for people. They were hot off the presses at Twist and Shout. And free.

hi,
 new here.   went to the interpol show last night.   i've been a fan of theirs and the bands they sound like for a long time.   was anyone else dismayed at their apparent lack of, i don't know, "giving a shit" maybe?   they seemed sloppy, and took forever between songs.   i don't expect perfection, but after the amount of time that those guys have been on the road, i ask for just a little professionalism, and i would guess that they're either wearing out, or they just don't care.    and to top it off, where the hell did carlos go in the middle of the set?  was he taking a piss?   has this already been discussed?   i saw them at the cure show this summer, and they were on.   but to pay $25 to see them just fuck around on their own was kind of a bummer.

i had seen the secret machines before at the black cat so i left for the show later than usual.  i caught the last half of SM's set and i was pretty impressed...the bob dylan song was a really interesting cover choice but it worked well.  i've always loved that song.
 
 i thought the show last night was decent.  definitely too short tho.  to charge $25 and play an hour set seemed ridiculous. i agree that they performed better at curiosa too; they were a bit sloppy last night, false starts and all.  obstacle 1 and evil were fab tho. i enjoyed seeing them a small(ish) club but wish it hadn't been so friggen packed.  i was surrounded by these gargantuan people on the floor...interpol definitely attracts a taller crowd (is it genetic?).  i finally moved to the balcony so that i could see the band but was sandwiched between some uninterested gabbers on the side wall and two won-some-tix-on-hfs couples who had not a clue who the band was but insisted on blocking out everyone behind them.  no one on my side of the balcony (left side near the ladies room) seemed to be that into the show.  as for complaints about the lack of band energy on stage...listen to an interpol album and anyone should know not to expect a raucous show with crazy rock-and-roll posturing and antics (no pun intended), except for the oh-so-gorgeous carlos posing with his bass in his military get-up. the crowd definitely could have been more animated tho. i've been saying that about dc crowds for a long time...these people should just drop the pretention and loosen up.
