Teenage Fanclub I then went
Teenage Fanclub
I then went to a Teenage Fanclub concert at Akasaka Blitz with my mate Peter and Paul Chu. Peter and Paul are huge fans of the band, I had never really heard their stuff (I just knew their name). It was also my first time at Akasaka Blitz. The show was pretty good - the band was tight, and, it being the last night of their Japan tour, they played lots of songs - between 25 and 30. my only gripe was just that it wasn't much of a spectacle! These guys are all pushing 40, and basically just stood, strumming their guitars and singing. I don't know about you, but whenI watch a concert, I want a bit of a show as well - some dancing and choreography etc. I mean, Mick Jagger is about 60 and he throws himself all over the stage! I mean, obviously, I can't blame Teenage Fanclub for not being more showy, that's just their style...
The next artist I'd like to see live is Eminem, but the tickets are a bit pricey.
