i can't pay my rent but i'm fucking gorgeous.
hey flist. sup sup?
last night anglichanka and i went to see ida maria and ladyhawke on the (vom) perez hilton tour. first we swung by the heartland brewery in union square and had a couple of raspberry ciders which were YUM (and got me a nice little buzz, which was lovely) and chatted for a bit (there may have been discussion of david f. cook and true blood; shocking, i know).
anyway, so we finally got to the fillmore and there were signs up that due to illness, ida maria wasn't playing (boo), but there would be some "special guests" in the line-up (yay?). i immediately hoped for surprise!gaga, but when i looked at perez's twitter to see if he'd announced who the special guests would be, he specifically said it wasn't her. then, i wished aloud for surprise!cobras, which i got to a small, brief degree (i'll get to that).
we got in just as the first guy (frankmusik or something?) was finishing up. i'm not really sure what his deal was...he seemed like any random dude who could've wandered in off the street and hopped onstage.
next was surprise guest #1 - little boots! which was cool, because i downloaded her album a while ago and even tho i'd only listened to it once or twice, i'd liked it, and she was adorable. she only played three songs because she had an actual show elsewhere in the city she had to get to, lol. here's the video for her first single "new in town." it's actually really good walking music, i concluded today. XD
Little Boots - New In Town
then we got SURPRISE GABE SAPORTA! i was super excited to see his face! sadly, he only came out on stage for a minute, to help perez introduce kat deluna.
[SIDEBAR!!]that one minute, however, was the real impetus for this entry. because when i finally got home last night, gabe tweeted about the show being awesome, and i sent him an @reply and told him he looked superfly in his suit, and...
ngl, i flailed a little. i mean, i know it's not a big deal, but still. gaaaaaaaabe! *___* [/SIDEBAR]
anyway, i didn't care about kat deluna, altho she was definitely working it and actually had a fantastic voice. just not my thing.
then SEMI PRECIOUS WEAPONS happened to my face. that shit was fucking crazy. i described justin, the lead singer, as "like some kind of dark trippy salvador dali unicorn" in a text message. they are *~garage glam~* and i cannot possibly do them justice, so here's a video.
quotes from justin that i tweeted:
"tits OUT!"
"someone deliver cock to the front row"
"the only thing that would make it better would be if you all started fucking. don't laugh at me! FUCK, dammit!"
after they finished, we waited eleventy billion hours, and ladyhawke came on around midnight. she was super nervous and awkward and adorable between songs, and just generally hot while she was performing. a lot of people cleared out after SPW and ladyhawke's set was basically a big gay dance party. i, of course, loved it.
here's ladyhawke, if you're unfamiliar. "my delirium."
i finally made it home around 2, watched glee (PUCK! UNF UNF UNF) and went to sleep.
in unrelated news, i changed my lj layout for the first time in a while (well, by my standards).
oh! and i didn't see this girl last night or anything, but i love her. new musical gf, hi!
