Last Night
I had the most AMAZING time ever.
Darren and I went to see Kings of Leon at the Hammersmith Apollo. I have never in my life acted like a maniac like I did last night. They were ELECTRIC. God the atmosphere in there was crazy. Everyone was jumping, drinking and chucking beer and getting into the music and singing along. Normally I'd go nuts if I had beer thrown at me but I didn't care 'cos I was having a great time. Everyone knew the songs. That is what's so great about Kings of Leon. EVERY song they have from all three albums is like an anthem in that everyone knows that it's a KOL song.
After the gig we went to China Town and got some food since we went straight to Hammersmith after work and had no dinner. And then we hoofed it home. And I'm totally knacked having had work today.
I was reading an interview they did and they were saying how they love coming over to the UK and playing here because the fans and the people that came to the shows 'got' what their music and what they're all about and that America was catching up to it all. You people in America are crazy for not loving KOL. They're one of the greatest bands to have emerged from there. See the main problem is the music industry in America is so heavily saturated with artists and bands and they all have their own fan base and such.
Hey, the UK will have KOL, the Strokes and other bands from Stateside ANY TIME.
I'm tempted to come over to NYC to see them in September if my Uni timetable will allow it. If not then it's December at Wembley arena.
I'm seriously contemplating on getting a t-shirt of theirs. Sad? Yeah, whatever.
