Gonna try to wear an accessory
that makes me look younger
that helps me appeal to a younger generation of bros
that helps me recapture an entry-level spirit.
I arrived at the venue around about 8:30 with a couple of bros. Electronic three piece Nedry took to the stage, armed with two laptops/guitars, a couple of synthesizers and an asian woman. Nedry combined elements of trip hop bands such as Portishead and Massive Attack fused with modern day dubstep/drum and bass. Lead singer Ayu thrashed and stumbled around the stage whilst laying down some haunting vocals, like a kid who has drunk too much fizzy pop.
We recently found ourselves arguing about the importance of band names. Our point was that a great band name can never be undervauled or carelessly chosen. And while the difference between a good one and a bad one is entirely subjective, we can all agree that no one would be rushing out to see Atoms For Peace if wasn’t what Thom Yorke was calling his Flea-studded backing band.
What’s up guys. This is Mike.. Go ahead and call me MikeBro in honor of Carles the #1 altbro of all time. haha. Go ahead, give me shit cause I’m not him, but give me a little bit of room to grow, too. Sure no one can match Carleses style, but I think if you guys keep coming back, you’ll start to open up to new ideas and words, and just give me a chance to shine. Maybe I need to make a new dotcom for this site, but thats something we can chat about later.. Right now, I have the keys to the badboy, so lets just buckle our seatbelts and take it for a wild ride….
