Went to the Ke$ha concert at House of Blues last night. (Thanks Monica for the ticket!) It was basically a sea of tweenage girls dressed like a cross between homeless people and go-go dancers (i.e. ripped fishnets underneath a sequin tunic, plus weird drawings on their faces). HIGHLY entertaining. And the show was good, too. Having seen Britney Spears, at least "Keh-dollar sign-huh" sings and dances around. And blasts a lot of confetti at the crowd. And discusses how she needs more glitter on her t*ts. That one's for you, 12-year-olds in the audience!
She only played for an hour - but then again how many songs does she have - and was a welcome relief from the weirdo bearded guy who was her opening act. Monica guessed he was her boyfriend. He was certainly NOT a musician. But I digress.
Really wanted to buy a souvenir, like the light-up glasses she was wearing at the beginning, but at $25 a pop I figured I could find something similar for like $5 at Party City. Even the Ke$ha underwear was expensive. (I own a Kid Rock thong, so this is not a completely foreign merch purch in my world.)
The most awesome item was a "spirit hood" (pictured above) which retailed for a whopping $175. How many 13-year-olds do YOU know who have $175. Then again, people were wearing them. So perhaps I am just super out-of-touch with today's youth. And considering that we sat at a table in the back with earplugs out just in case things got out of hand, I guess that answers THAT question. Totes out of touch.
I like your beard.
Were you the only ones there your age who didn't bring their kids? Although light-up glasses sounds like a nice Mother's Day gift.
