Aesop Rock 8/13

FOR ERNIE'S BIRTHDAY (COMING UP ON AUG 26th)
MEADOW AND STU GOT HIM TWO TICKETS TO ONE
OF HIS FAVORITE ARTISTS, AESOP ROCK, AT THE RIALTO.

HERE IS A SHORT, BAD VIDEO I TOOK 
OF HIM JUST BEFORE THE SHOW:



THE OPENER, EDISON, WAS REALLY GOOD.  HE USED THIS 
CRAZY 256 BUTTON LIGHT UP PAD TO CONTROL ALL OF THE 
SOUNDS AND PROJECTED IT ONTO A SCREEN BEHIND HIM.

AND WHILE HIP HOP ISN'T MY FAVORITE-FAVORITE,
AESOP ROCK HAS REALLY GROWN ON ME.  HE
WAS ADORABLE IN PERSON.  HE KEPT DOING THIS
REALLY HAPPY, SQUINTED SMILE.  HE WAS A DELIGHT.

IT WAS REALLY HARD TO GET ANY GOOD PICS THOUGH.




THE SOUND ON THE VIDEO I TOOK IS TERRIBLE!
THIS SONG IS ABOUT A BAD HAIR CUT AND THEY
TOOK A "VOLUNTEER" FROM THE AUDIENCE AND
GAVE HIM THE WORST DO EVER!!  I SAY VOLUNTEER
BECAUSE THERE WAS A SIGN-UP SHEET, BUT
WHEN HE GOT CALLED HIS FRIENDS HAD TO 
FORCE HIM UP THERE, HA HA.






I HONESTLY CANNOT UNDERSTAND A THING HE
SAYS IN THE VIDEOS, BUT ONE OF THESE IS ERNIE'S
FAVORITE SONG.  JUST CAN'T TELL WHICH ONE...









OVERALL IT WAS A GREAT SHOW AND I WAS HAPPY
ERNIE AND I GOT TO GO.  HE WAS IN HEAVEN.
