Booked tickets at the Observatory Nov 3, 2022, $193.49 as a husband birthday surprise. Hopefully grands can still come down to watch the kid that evening.
Mema encouraged to go early to get a good spot, but husband was probably right that the opener was not a music style I enjoyed and since it is standing room only, the extra standing was rough. Was glad to pass on crappy booze that was over priced and just made the logistics of getting and keeping a good view harder. A cougar in a floor length dress with impeccable ash grey blown out bob asking her sugar daddy for more modelo's in front of us just didn't seem that chic, without the bottle, 9/10 chic... with it... I dunno, 4? 5?
Eugene Hutz seems to be the prototype for a lot of quirky soviet block country characters-- Borat, maybe a bit of the upstairs neighbor who runs a circus that I just saw in Coraline. He's so lanky. He's got these marching band pants cropped to low calf, and these leather shoes that just make his feet look implausibly long and narrow. His Ukraine roots influenced a lot of new material about the war, which it sounds like might not even be new material, might be covers/modifications of fugazi and other bands I don't know that well. Really liked a lot of his band though-- the pirate fiddler, the pipes BBW, even the quirky latinX second percussion guy + front man that showed up clashing in a polo shirt and fila zip up grew on me.
Here he is crowd surfing on a marching band drum head while swinging a free Ukraine flag in the encore...
