Ladytron, Adam Green, and the big white elephant


I went to the Ladytron show the other night not because I'm a big fan but because my best friend is leaving for London on Tuesday and I won't see him for a long, long time. And I'm sentimental that way. It was actually a really good show and now I need to get their album. They weren't nearly as electronic as I expected which is good.

It's always a treat for me to see all the fashion victims at these hipster shows, partly because I used to be one of them and partly because I love to people watch. There was always a part of me that knew I looked a little over the top but I was so drunk that I just didn't care (or was oblivious). Having a good time was all that mattered and boy, did I ever have a good time. Just ask Adam Green. ;) I think that these people know they're over the top and everyone in the venue knows it too but nobody really talks about it because that would be catty.
