The Naked & Famous
Here’s a band whose major single, Young Blood, I was pretty familiar with. It’s upbeat, it’s catchy, it makes you want to dance. Something I didn’t know however, is that their target demographic is 30-something year old drunken, obnoxious, average white folks. The crowd at their show last night were something of a cross between an aged, Riverview formal afterparty and the regular clientel of an Outback Steakhouse.
I had more beer spilled on my ankles than I’ve had at any other show in my life and I’ve seen my fair share of shows. Lyn suggested that we’d have saved money on drinks if we’d attached capture bags to our thighs and drunk of our pals’ spillage. A disgusting idea, given, but economically sound. They weren’t even dancing, they just didn’t possess the fine motor skills to perform the basic glass to mouth maneuver.
I think we realised it was going to be a bizarre night when we brought the wrong tickets to the show yet were allowed in nonetheless. Here’s a song you’ve no doubt heard from the strongbow ad.

I'm seeing them a bit later this month! i'll keep the capture bags idea in mind…
You should genuinely consider it if the same crowd is present.
