It always amazes me the acts poscene will bring to 330 Ritch. Tonight it was Maximo Park with Monsters Are Waiting as the opening act. With a name like Annalee, how could you not love her. She was quite adorable, okay, i take that back- looking at her pic- i think she's quite gorgeous. Apparently she could barely hear herself and was frustrated by that fact. Mr. Sound Engineer- where were you?
I constantly wonder how rockstars feel about having thousands of fans worship you at one end of the world and then get a decent turn out in America at popscene-sf. At least Paul and the rest of the band memberes still brought (and kept) their energy on the tiny stage at 330- there wasn't much space for Paul to fully show of his repertoire of dance moves. However, it was rather dissapointing that they refused an encore performance even though the audience chanted for, say 5 minutes for them to do another song? So perhaps they were divas after all- seeing that they were performing at popscene for their 2nd time to promote their second album? I'm on the fence- you tell me whether they were happy to be there!
Unfortunately our night ended up on a sour note where the meter maid gave Sophie a ticket for being in a street cleaning zone. We were also boxed in by an idiotic car who no doubt was in 330 for the MIA dj set.
:( Maximo- this i blame you for- if we didn't wait around in hopes that you would do an encore- we would have vamanos-ed earlier.
