Hello, old Cynthia Handworthy here reporting from USA. I have been wondering around in a drugged-up-to-the-bleedin-eyeballs stage for the last 15 years... both me gut and me tits are hanging down to me knees - lovely! I forced myself to go and see another crap prog band (which is all there seems to be these days!!!) oh! Citadel is always a good laugh, long prog rock hair lead singer, is now a she, snipped and all. Hope they used more than a staple gun!! Oh! where was I... so, I trundled down to San Jose in California (lots of coppers on the streets because of all the club brawls, sounds like old Blighty! And No, I didn't get held by the fuzz.). There was a club called The Usual that was quite nicely decked out as apparently they were filming it for tv that following week. I'm off straight to the front like a right old bruiser!! There were quite a few bands on because it was for all of the local bands from around San Jose. There was a strange mix of people from your average Anorak prog head to chicks with their tits hanging out - whey! hey! misses... the other bands were shite, pretty boy pop groups (which, unfortunately everyone seemed to like). Then came Maximum Indifference with their really nice looking equipment (oor! err!), beer guts, and bald heads.... but, man! can they play. A girlfriend of mine was rocking out with me as she was pretty boozed up. She turned around and said "errh! they sound like Genesis" my reply to that was " em! Rush actually my dear". Their stuff was all instrumental, they didn't need a singer, the music pretty much spoke for itself. They showed a little humor by announcing themselves as "the back street boys" emm! ok.... at least they spoke, I have seen them many times before and they don't say boo to a bleedin goose!!! So, all in all they beat the rest of the crap they had on that stage, and I was a happy wench again!! I even brought one of the Chandler brothers with me, he didn't take anyones' pint or crisps... I think he nabbed a cd though, hang on! he paid for it!!! what's going on here!! That's you're lot! Cynth |
