Two Turntables and a Microphone

Thanks to my friend Veggie, we went to the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday to see Beck, Spoon, and MGMT.

Lovely seats!

Unfortunately, the four women behind us didn't read this sign.

Instead, they proceeded to talk non-stop very loudly about their children's love of Yo Gabba Gabba, one woman's sister's artificial insemination by a sperm donor from Denmark, and another woman's 36th birthday plans.

Please let me never be like this. Please.

Nearly all of my videos include their inane chatter. Gah.

MGMT "Time to Pretend"



MGMT "Kids"



I think the number of videos on my blog may be affecting some readers' browsers, so, if you want to see any of my Spoon videos, click here for the entire set. There are also more MGMT and Beck videos there.

Beck "Loser"



Beck "Devil's Haircut"



Beck "Timebomb"



Beck "Gamma Ray"



Beck "Think I'm in Love" with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra Strings, conducted by David Campbell



Beck "Where It's At"



Beck "E-Pro"



Everybody was singing, "Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah," as we walked back to our car.

  2. That sounds like such a fun night. Even though I didn't know who MGMT was before sometime last month when I was playing messenger between you and the hubs.

  5. Gah! I hate talkers at the bowl. I seriously would have told them to shut up or to leave. I've done it before. And I can see that fricking cross in your picture... how annoying. But I'm glad you had a good time... It was a beautiful night for a concert.
