I after falling in LOVE with X-Men: First Class yesterday evening, I made my way out to The Roxy on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, CA to see KidneyThieves in concert. Back in my goth/industrial phase, I was a big fan of the band’s debut album Trickster. Their song Feathers is still one of my all-time fave songs from my club days. I had never seen the band live before so, last night was my first chance to do so.
All in all the show was pretty good … but I did learn that I am not the same person that I was back in 1998. While I still love all that industrial dance/goth pop music, I think I’m far too old for the scene anymore. All the kids were still wearing fishnetting, electrical tape and pleather clothing … which made me feel totally out of place. Yes, I used to rock that same stuff in my youth but I don’t any longer. I think it’s awesome that the scene is still going strong and a new generation of industrial goths are flourishing. As for the show, KidneyThieves put on a great concert … but I was totally bummed out that they didn’t play Feathers ;( The show was kinda short but I honestly didn’t mind. They didn’t take the stage until 11pm and my old ass didn’t need to be out at all hours of the night ;) ‘Twas a fun show, I’m glad I went.
Tonight, David and I are planning to head downtown to help our dear friend Eileen celebrate her birthday today! That should be a blast. Happy Saturday.
