Music Fun
I have had so much work thrown on me recently. Really, I didn’t have much choice but to work through the weekend. I put in another sixteen hours this weekend, and I am almost caught up with all my work. Although there was a lot of work to be done, it was a great weekend.
Saturday night, Tony got the privilege of being a judge in the Global Battle of the Bands, hosted at Key Club. He got a bunch of us onto the guest list. Harrison was in town and he and Annie came out. It was nice to get back to the small clubs on The Sunset Strip, where I saw countless concerts back in college. What can I say about the music? Some of the bands were great, while others had no place in the contest. I think the judges had it hard, because the bands weren’t even the same genre of music.
This band was my favorite. They’re called Johnny Rumble and they sound a bit like Nirvana.
This band was like Korn, and like Korn, I didn’t enjoy the music.
These guys sound like Incubus.
This band did not fit in at all with only a keyboard and drums. The drummer was extremely good though, and they did a good job of making their songs sound full with just the two instruments.
Heavy Mojo, performing what they call Acid Hip Hop.
If metal isn’t already dead, it probably should be mercifully put down.
It’s like the Dave Matthews Band.
The winning band was Heavy Mojo. After the contest, we headed to the Viper Room for the afterparty, where Heavy Mojo performed. The band was awesome and got the people rocking out. All in all, I had a lot of fun listening to a lot of different bands and hanging out with friends.
