The Night of Dark Groove
Feb. 11th, 2009 08:00 pmI love receiving post, especially if it consists of a chapbook of poems written by a friend (
idioticpoet) - gone straight to my bedside table - and tickets for a gig... by The Cure!
And. Oh. Gosh. The opening acts are White Lies, Crystal Castles and Franz Ferdinand... a proper night out. I've seen Franz Ferdinand play before, when they didn't have a record label, and they are alright. I was introduced to White Lies a few weekends ago by
tga and they hit all those alternative 80s acupuncture points I love so much; and I think Crystal Castles are doing something interesting and worth keeping an eye on. Will be intriguing to see how they translate live, in such a big venue as the O2.
That night, I'll have the only two boys[1] I've ever loved sitting beside me, friends dispersed in the crowd and Robert Smith right in front of me - finally.
[1] It's three if you count le Moz, of course. But he won't be there. He won't be sitting beside me. I think he still has a grudge against Bob.
