| __________________________________ [Sep 11,2005 9:38pm - succubus ""] It started...mgmt started with 2 guys...each with a guitar...and wearing winter hats...they were holding their cell phones into the mics and called each other and decided that they should start the show....there is a keyboard they occasionally use for sampling and playing.....they both took off their white tshirts...at one point a 3rd one came out in a suit and blonde wig...drummed for a song and left...though he had a bowl with folded up papers and let people pick out of the bowl...the song they are playing now reminds me of 80's psychedelic furs..I really like it...I can also hear new order influences....I'm diggin it... They just requested all the lights be turned off as I'm typing... Cool that someone oh here knows someone who is here =) |
