CONCERT

So i just got back from the concert and it was amazing. so we got a parking spot by neumos around 8ish and decided to go to qfc for something to drink. We got a mountain dew and rootbeer to split among aaron, sam and i. aaron was wearing my painted leather jacket and the door man started talking to him about the addicts and how he was a big fan of theirs, aaron was slightly confused >.<
After we got, my dad gave me money for a tshirt which i bought. Its got the niggytardust logo off of the website, mines white and aarons is grey. we got there "early" so we were able to get spots standing about 5 feet from the stage.
Originally it was going to be saul williams with a band called "dragons of zenthar" or something as the opening band. a third act was added, he was a local hiphop artist by the name of gabriel something or other. he started pretty close to 9 and it was just him and his dj. he did have his cousin who was in the audience come up and do some spoken word which was neat.
the second act, dragons of ...., were okay. a couple of their songs i reaaaaally liked, they were more rock oriented with a bassist, guitarist, drummer and singer on a keyboard. the reason i didnt think they were that great, is that all though they had some good songs and what not, the guitar was really screechy and did not fit the rest of the music. you could say it got annoying
dragons were done at about 1030 and saul didnt come up til about 1115. i also didnt move from where i was standing because every time someone moved, they would immediately lose their spot. at around 1115 3 people came onstage, one got behind a dj set thing, another behind some synths and a laptop and the third picked up a guitar, saul wasnt there yet. they started one of the songs off of niggy tardust titled break and played it without saul, it sounded great. when saul came on stage they played a song titled "gunshots by computer". that made me happy because originally that was a NIN song called HYPERPOWER! and saul sung over it for a NIN remix album. i proceeded to write down the playlist on my phone as the show went on. he played almost every song from niggy tardust
i will post the setlist in the morning when my phone is done charging... >.<
at one point saul came into the audience while he was singing and i was about 2 feet from him which was very cool. at one point he also mentioned Obama's speach yesterday and everyone cheered. throughout the first half of saul playing some people kept shouting out "Poetry!" and it was getting obnoxious. he stopped the concert and called them on it eventually saying "this is the poetry of shut the $*&@ up" he did an encore of about 4 songs, one where he let CX Kidtronik (the dj-ish guy) do a song (he pulled a random mask over his head and everyone was confused...) they ended with a song called "list of demands" which pretty much everyone knew they would play.
i got some decent pics on my phone, but it doesnt like computers... i might find some pictures from other people that were at the show tomorrow...
