Always sounds too pretentious. <br /><br />You can always describe yourself ("I'm a man of integrity." No that's someone else's call). <br /><br />Let someone else describe you; they'll have more distance and perhaps be more accurate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-9125722897182969562012-07-12T12:52:46.672-04:002012-07-12T12:52:46.672-04:00I think these guys should all dress like Patti Smi...<i>I think these guys should all dress like Patti Smith on the cover of "Horses." :-)</i><br /><br />Amusing idea, but I'm not going there.<br />:-)steve simelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247393763004076992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-50779897206269687562012-07-12T12:44:48.909-04:002012-07-12T12:44:48.909-04:00Cool-sounding band with a lot of talent and smarts...Cool-sounding band with a lot of talent and smarts.

And it's amazing/appalling how many concert venues figure all rock/pop music fans are just young, drunken louts and treat them accordingly.<br /><br />Nope. No way. Not when I'm paying good money.Gummohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09947040598570967596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-63234331875695309242012-07-12T09:36:23.065-04:002012-07-12T09:36:23.065-04:00Glad to hear I am not the only one whose feet hurt...Glad to hear I am not the only one whose feet hurt at a concert!

Not sure how I feel about that.<br /><br />And steve, it's great to hear about a small venue with SEATS. I last went to a stand-up-all-night show in 1998, because my incredibly flat, aching feet just couldn't take it. That puts me off most of the smaller venues in NYC right there.Gummohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09947040598570967596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-533002043894193312012-07-12T09:15:31.606-04:002012-07-12T09:15:31.606-04:00I should add that said Shady Dame and I saw these ...I should add that said Shady Dame and I saw these guys at the Blender, which is a reconverted old movie theater on 23rd street.<br /><br />It's the perfect place for old folks to see a band, as they left half the seats intact. You can grab a drink and then go sit in the mezzanine, comfortable and with great sight lines to the stage.steve simelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247393763004076992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-64711284498582036842012-07-12T09:12:44.369-04:002012-07-12T09:12:44.369-04:00Seeing an unsigned band that is clearly ready for ...Seeing an unsigned band that is clearly ready for prime time makes me wonder about the sucky bands that do get signed --- is the topic "Bands That Make You Scratch Your Head And Go, HUH????"Brooklyn Girlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-38840769030315850992012-07-12T09:04:34.437-04:002012-07-12T09:04:34.437-04:00@Edward.
