Chromeo


I watched Chromeo perform at the Fillmore last night and it was by far the best concert I have been to in ages if not of all time.

The DJ who opened for the event was an ass hat with no skill what so ever. All he did was play music videos on a projector and occasionally scratch them. The only reason it was at all entertaining was because he played a few popular clips. Most notably for me was the Flat Eric - Flat Beat video.

The overall performance was amazing. It had just the right amount of cowbell and hot chicks. I went my co-worker and new friend Aaron who I turned on to Chromeo and he's never been happier.

Not only did I get the epic entertainment of my current favorite band but I also got some unexpected sexy butt grinding. Thats right butt grinding. Right before the main event began this girl and her friend asked us if it was ok if they smoked a cigarette, we are in the middle of a huge crowed 4 people back from the stage mind you, and I said I didn't mind. Aaron however objected and she began to flirt with him and eventuraly he agreed to aproove in exchange for a few extra feet closer to our Tenderoni.

As soon as the music started this girl was all over Aaron dancing with him and her friend like crazy. I kept look back and making eye contact with her and at the beginning of like song three she shoves her self in front of me. Her eyes on the stage and never making contact with me she shoves her butt in to me and we start ass dance grinding in ways that would make baby jesus go to conffession. It was totally hot!

Chromeo played just about every song they have on both Fancy Footwork and She's in Control. They would have skipped some key songs like Mamma's Boy had the grown not chanted P-Thugg and Dave 1 back out 4 times!!!

When it was all over and people started clearning out Aaron and I started to help ass grinding girl find something she dropped. While scanning the floor I could an male RCA jack turned into an earing and thought it was so cool I pocketed it. Moments later I showed it to Aaron and he spotted the girl who was missing it. I returned it to her and she had no idea it was even gone.

Jade, the one with the awesome earings, chatted me up a bit. In retro spect I totally fumbled this one failing to find a conversational path towards re encounter. I am definitely out of practice. To top it all off while I was chatting up Jade the hot ass grinding girl (who I never formally met) disappeared.

Double Darn.

But Dude!! CHROOOOMMMEEEEOOOOOO!! OOOO!!! OOOO!!

Kanoodling

Gah! I don't blog enough.

I just got back from a 3 day weeked in Albequerque, New Mexico visiting my friend Binx.

binx

I had a crap ton of fun. BTW FYI Binx FTW.

Friday night we went to the Albuquerque version of the Exploratorium call Explora which had all kinds of cool shit. This mirror box thing they had was wicked cool, check it out:


They also had a paired of those half dome sound bouncy thingies. While we were playing with them it inspired me to want to make a gigantic pair for the playa that requires megaphones to use. Anyone interested for 09? Binx?

Saturday night was probably one of the funest times I have had in a good long time. I never seem to remember how much fun I have dancing. Binx and I went to a club called Club 7. Which is an 18+ hiphop club that I would never be caught dead in if I wasn't with the best dance partner in the world. You guessed it. The Bixatron 5K.

It harked back to all the horrible hiphop clubs I loved going to in Thailand because that where people actually danced there asses off and that we did. We were the whitest kids in the club and if you happend to be scoring on how ass-grindingly sexy our dancing was; then we were the blackest kids in the club too. You should have been there but your wernt to HA!

Another more mentionable activitey among our adventures envolved a little dinner called Flying Star. At the request of Mr. Slim we excitedly ordered a plate of yummi noodles and proceeded to Kanoodle the shit out of eachother in front of shocked and awed onlookers. That's right readers! I present to you KANOODLING:


Btw, if you've never Kanoodled you haven't lived!

On Sunday we drove out to a zen sanctuary where we relaxed in some clothing non-optional hot springs. On the way there we saw a tent advertising "Holy Ghost Revival" which we got all geared up to go to but they were closed. Day of rest my ass!

On the way back we got the best food of the whole trip. We stoped at this little road side sovering witha BBQ where some locals were cooking up some bomb New Mexican Native American food. mmmmm. Deep fried and covered in green chili. Yum. If you've never tried New Mexican food its a must. Some of the best American cusine I've ever had.

My weekend came to a close by the disapointing viewing of the film "Wanted" which is time I should have spent sleeping considering the next morning an exahsted Binx drove me to the airport to catch my 6am flight back to SF. That flight ended up being was delayed and I was super late to work. But my job rocks and no one seems to care woot!

yay awesome weekend! and double ya to awesome Binx!!
