Title: Imogen Heap
Post by: pumpkineye on March 10, 2006, 12:55:54 PM
ok so while i sometimes indulge in girly music, it's usually something i don't talk about.  Imogen Heap is the vocalist from Frou Frou, which I considered way girly and listened to with some reservations.  Her solo album however, i cannot stop listening to.  The song 'Hide and Seek' is this acopela song that she uses a voice synthasizer with and multiple backup tracks of herself... seriously haunting song, but so beautiful... Tell me again where to email it so you guys can hear it.  I forgot the dump infos

Yep...every time it would change he would turn his head the other way.  He's kinda dumb, though.

Imogen Heep is playing in New Orleans this weekend.  I'm headed there with some new, unexpectedly close friends.  If anyone wants to come with (Josh, Molly etc.)  i would love to have you.   Actually, to make a broad statement,  I miss all you Junto people.  I've been all over the place in the past year, and it is nice to rediscover some beautiful minds.

ok i'm done being sappy.

when and where? Is Tina coming? She is very entertaining.

Hey PE, wasn't it a Frou Frou song that you loved so much that we listened to on the way back from Austin?  I think it was just after we dropped OBB off at IAH.

I don't know what Roofi is, but I DO know that this should not have been labeled a "concert".

Daniel and Molly might have enjoyed it, and several people said it got better, but I stayed as long as I could and then left. I did have lots of fun on Bourdon so the night wasn't a total loss.
Maybe I would have liked it but I was so pissed off by the time they started the show almost TWO hours late, plus there was no A/C so I was hot, tired, and packed into a very small room.

So it was either a bad concert or I'm just a whiney little bitch.

I would have left too.  I hate that shiat.  It shows a real disrespect for the audience.
Title: Re: Imogen Heap
Post by: Miss Molly on May 15, 2006, 12:02:28 AM
The deal was this:

They waited so long to start the show because "there were still a lot of people outside waiting to get in" at the time it was supposed to have started. 

Stupidest reason ever.  If you can't show up on time to something, that's your loss, not everybody else's. 

It would have been an OK show.  But the opening act, Zoe Keating, was a cellist.  A motherfucking cellist.  She supposedly did some really cool layering/syncing/whatever high tech stuff, but after the first piece her equipment malfunctioned so it was just a fucking cello playing to a hot, drinking/drunk audience who couldn't even move there were so many people packed into this place. 

Seriously, I think I nodded off several times.  It was pretty music, but more suited to listening to after someone has dumped you or you've popped a Xanex and are trying to fall asleep.  Isn't the point of an opener to PUMP UP the crowd, not put them to sleep???? 

By the time Imogen actually came on, I was DONE.  My feet and back were KILLING me from being stationary for 2 fucking hours and I was hot and sticky and really sick of the obnoxious jackass bitches standing next to me who wouldn't shut up and stop bumping into me.  I only lasted maybe 5 songs into the set. 

Rating?  Not worth the $16.50.

the circumstances were thorny, only the strong survived.

I'm glad you enjoyed the show, but I am of the opinion that you don't pay the ridiculous ticket prices (and extraneous service charges) to have a thorny experience.  It is the responsibility of both the artist and the venue to help ensure that your evening is anything but.

Of course, I concede that this is hopelessly idealistic, as the ideals of customer service and personal responsibility are slowly being stomped into their grave by our exceedingly selfish and lazy society.

Since I've worked in customer service for so long I have lots of grace for other people in customer service. I very rarely get upset over something like that.
But this was very different. There seemed to be this whole "fuck you" attitude starting with the bouncer and going all the way to the performers.

I'm glad you enjoyed it though, Daniel.

This really happened.
Imogene left a Heap of fecal matter on the toilet lid downstairs in Liberty Hall. I sniffed it. It was definitely Scottish.

So.  There you have it.
