I Saw VOD The Other Night.

This past Friday at the Gramercy Theatre, to be specific. And if he wasn’t in Virginia, it wouldn’t surprise me that xrebelheartsx had been there too, and immediately gone home and put this shirt up in sadness…

Not that it was a surprise, since it’s been the case since like 1998, but VOD in 2010 = rock concert. A very crowded rock concert to be sure, but a rock concert all the same. I’m not gonna say that people don’t stage dive to VOD or that they’re not into that happening anymore or anything, but in this particular instance the only stage diving was done by 20 beach balls that they (not even they, they’re road crew) threw out into the crowd before the lights went out and Party In The USA started blaring out over the PA. They DID open with Suffer and Element, which in theory is cool but it was just a total rock show vibe (dude tried for the scream version of a high note in Suffer for crying out loud) that it was actually just awkward. None of us were feeling it, so we left early and went to Shake Shack, which made the night a big win.

So yeah, long story short (too late), don’t expect to see the back of this shirt recreated any time soon.
