THE DARKNESS @ LE TRABENDO

On Sunday Kat and I were off on a little adventure! We accidentally got off at a metro stop not exactly ~near~ our goal, so we hiked through the Parc de La Villette in the very compact dark. After climbing through some bushes and avoiding lurking weirdos we saw the lights!  Got a couple of beers and sat down in the courtyard of Le Trabendo, really nice little venue!  Kat had gotten us tickets to see The Darkness! :D We'd talked about it briefly a week prior and as the do-er she is she got on it straight away!  We completely missed the opening act (there was beer to be had in a fairy light-lit courtyard?!) but made it just in time for the main guys to come out on stage!  Can someone PLEASE get me this cape for Christmas?????  I was expecting a fun gig, to jump around a bit etc - but they exceeded all of my expectations! I absolutely loved it!! We managed to position ourselves right on the side of the stage, by the guitar tech! We made him our friend and he gave us the two set lists at the end of the show, along with a pick each, yay! Felt a bit VIP B-)  Sometimes a bit of an obstructed view (with the amps and all) but I still think we had the best spots in the house?!  THIS GUITAR!!!! Like Dorothy's shoes in guitar form!!! Love love love love <3 Love love love love <3 (also check out topless guy behind us!) After the gig we managed to hang out with the security guys & roadies for a bit, haha! a GREAT night, thank you Kat!!! <3 <3 <3 Happy Tuesday loves!
