Gorillaz were in town last night for a show at Madison Square Garden folks. I really feel bad for anyone who missed this concert. This band is by far one of the most creative bands out there. They really know how to put on a show man. The visuals were insane, the vibe was insane, the sounds.. the sounds the sounds the sounds were insane! I had two complimentary tickets from Star Trak Entertainment, one for me and one for whoever I wanted to bring out. So of course I called Nell, haha. He had to cancel plans for this but I'm sure he thought it was worth it.
N.E.R.D. opened the show with songs from their latest album 'Nothing' which will be out next month I believe. Hot'N'Fun is the perfect song to get a crowd going. It makes you want to dance with anyone next to you and just have a good time. Lapdance is a different story. When that comes on.. the 'crazy' in everyone comes out, haha. Pharrell is good at bamboozling people. I guess thats his way of building the energy because he was talking for a little bit then out of nowhere Lapdance comes on. It all hits you at once like a pie to the face. The energy alone was enough to leave you speechless. Big up to Star Trak. Big up to Pharrell and yes "different people will take over the world.", Big Big BIG up to Famlay who i was able to exchange words with (Blackberry over iPhone my man!)
The Gorillaz performed tracks from their latest album 'Plastic Beach': Stylo featuring Mos Def & Bobby Womack, Superfast Jellyfish featuring Gruff Rhys & De La Soul, Some Kind of Nature featuring Lou Reed, thats just to name a few. Appearances by Snoop Dogg, the Boogieman himself, Mos Def! De La Soul, Little Dragon, Bobby Womack, Lou Reed, Miho Hatori and of course Damon Albarn (of the Gorillaz), all amazing artist. Damon loves that New York energy. We love you back homie! The band capped of the night with two of the biggest songs, Feel Good inc, Last Living Souls, both off Demon Days and of course Clint Eastwood! off their self entitled album 'Gorillaz' which released in 2001. All in all this was a great show, great experience, great night. Can't wait for them to come back around.
