Survival of the Fittest: Klaxons

Klaxons/Fist Fite
11 July 2007
Great American Music Hall $20
San Francisco, CA

Shit, NorCal teens are crAzy. It was an excellent show, but personally I thought their Coachella set was even better. The SF crowd was really into them though, and a lot more than the crowd at Coachella. Security sucked by the way. Whoever thought of using round tables as barricades is brilliant! They're really fucking idiots. They hurt like a mother. I have bruises to prove it. Either I'm weak or I just can't keep up with those young folks in the crowd anymore. Trust me, I'm still young, but damn kids are crazy (and SOME are still immature bitches) nowadays. Klaxons are really nice guys though, and put on one of the most energetic performances I've ever seen. I'd see them again and again, but I think I'm getting a little too old for the pit.

And I don't even want to talk about Fist Fite. While they do have fans who love their music, the majority of the crowd hated them. I simply just disliked them. I like good screamo once every while, but I couldn't even hear the vocalist and their music was terrible. All I heard was little screams. I think it's great that they finished their set with enthusiasm since most of the crowd didn't seem too into them.

(Pictures coming as soon as I'm fully rested)
