VMAs

No, I didn’t watch the VMAs, I heard they were boring. Panic! at the Disco won video of the year? Who decides these things? But I did watch some selected performances.

I love theatricality in music. Not many bands can really pull it off these days. My Chemical Romance can really bring it though. Their performance on the VMAs was one of the better moments of the boring evening. But guys, you’re not the Misfits. Just an fyi.

The NYtimes is also trying to keep up with the shit kids are listening to, and did a piece on Gerard Way. Like they’ve just discovered him or something.

And the Killers perform “When You Were Young”. They sound okay.

Later that night the Rapture played a post-VMA thing. And my jealousy rages for anyone who was there, because they are the band that I will now be unhealthily obsessing over.
