T.V.O.T.R.
I don't know your music well
But your set was cool.
I got free tickets!
Thanks, K.C.R.W.
Vivian came, too.
I love the Wiltern.
Art Deco and trendy kids--
Who could ask for more?
I could ask for less:
Vests, Plaid, Skinny Jeans on guys.
Maybe I'm just old.
Maybe you're just lame
If you're a guy, and were there
Wearing skinny jeans.
Sorry, I digress.
I didn't see the Dirtbombs,
Who opened the show.
I needed to eat,
So I hoovered some nachos
in the lobby first.
Then we were ready,
Nourished by chips and vodka,
To see the main act.
They were good, I guess.
Big hype's tough to live up to,
But they held their own.
Thank God for earplugs,
Or feedback and distortion
Is all I would have heard.
I'm apeshit for horns,
And they had four horn players
As guest musicians!
So that part was fun.
The energy started low,
But swelled quite nicely.
Songs were inventive,
The band was technically sound,
But overall? Meh.
Am I just un-hip?
You know who seemed to like it?
Jonas Brothers clones.
Maybe it would help
If I got more familiar
With some of their tunes.
I won't give up yet
On you, T.V.O.T.R.
We will meet again.
