MISFIT LOVE


Last week me and NixX went on a little trip to check out Queens of the motherfucking stone age. And it was awesome. QOTSA is one of those bands that won't ever disappoint...(Maybe I made that sound as if there are lot's of bands that never disappoint...Need I remind you of this lovely evening?) And I loved the songs they played.
Me and mister Joshua Homme have one thing in common: this is our favorite song:










Queens of the stone age - Misfit love live @ pinkpop 2008

I know I have written about this song before, but it's that damn good. Misfit love truly is one of the best songs ever written. And the number one song to hear live (and by hear I mean to lose your mind, shake your ass and get completely fucked up to).

It was really all they needed to play. Don't get me wrong I like their other stuff, I'm just saying that I would love to see a one hour show where they play 'Misfit love' for 45 minutes and then morph that into 'You Got A Killer Scene There, Man...' for the remaining 15 minutes...Maybe play 'Songs for the dead', 'Skin on Skin' and 'Make it wit chu' as an encore...but you know, i don't wanna seem toooo demanding.....
And yes, I'm very well aware this will never happen, primarily because it would be downright SUICIDE!!!. And not just for the band, I'm surprised I have made it through the 6 minute version twice already without collapsing.
BUT GODDAMMIT WHAT A WAY TO GO!
Maybe, one day, in a perfect world. A world where convenience stores sell IV's, it rains Gatorade and we're all on Amphetamines.

SORRY

1. I'm sorry mister train cleaner, I didn't mean to throw up in your train. But if you had cleaned the toilet better I would have used that instead of the floor, really. I realize now that my sad attempt to cover it up with newspaper might have made it even worse to clean up. So sorry mister janitor.


2. I'm sorry tall metallica hoody wearing dude from Wales, I didn't mean to use you as a human towel all night. But to be fair, I did get permission from your friend. I never got your name, probably because I didn't ask. Or talked to you at all for that matter...You have nice friends though.


3. I'm sorry mom, for having no self respect whatshowever and being one of those girls. But please try to understand I only act like that because I have low self esteem. And my therapist told me that you are partially responsible for that...And tits are genetically passed down talents....Anyway, I did it again and I'm sorry.

I JUST WANNA DANCE

Right now I'm thinking of going to the Queens of the stone age, and I have 4 more hours to make up my mind. I have wanted to see this band live for 3 whole months now! (see, that sarcasm is my way of talking myself out of it) No seriously, I've never really been into Qotsa until I saw this clip of them performing misfit love at Henry Rollins.



This right here is the definition of awesomeness....This song feels like techno and I'm hoping some day that 58 minute instrumental version shows up.



I bought songs for the deaf long time ago and liked it but hearing no one knows all day everyday on the radio pissed me of so much, i just thought fuck it. Not only that but those qotsa/eagles of death metal/dessert session/foo fighter/and-what-not fans creep me out a bit. Those people sleep in front of venues and get all massive obsessive and shit, it's just wack.

ANYWAYS

Why not go?
It's sold out (???WTF???) but that's not a problem, I always get in (sounds arrogant but it's true). The problem is I only have about 129,- left for the rest of the month and I will seriously die of liver failure if I get wasted again, which I'll probably be before I even get there. And it took 3 days and 2 seasons of lost to recover from last saturday. (btw, thanks for that NixX, I had a great time)

I have to quit writing now, I need to get dressed...
