fermentor666 Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 Ok so I'm a little drunk, it's 4:oo something AM and I just saw the best show ever. Band: Ratatat. D/L cd here: http://www.disappearhere.org/tunes/kc/RATATAT/ but also buy it because they're awesome. I haven't been to a show that good in forever and the opening bands were pretty lame so that says something about Ratatat which was that they were awesome. My ears are ringing like morning bells.

fermentor666 Posted March 6, 2005 Author Share Posted March 6, 2005 Dude, it was the most amazing thing I've ever been too and I've been to some awesome shows. The two guys had guitar and bass and were playing to the drum machine, I can't even begin to tell you how awesome it was, it was so loud and awesome. Awesomeness. Totally radical and tubular. If they are playing near you ever don't miss it for your life even if the opening bands suck total dick. Plus, their new stuff is awesome.

I went friday in Providence too, but had to leave before Ratatat played so my friend could make his curfew. I too wish I had bought some earplugs. I was wearing a hoodie that said MAX2000 on it.

fermentor666 Posted March 6, 2005 Author Share Posted March 6, 2005 OH shit dude, that's crazy. I don't think I saw ya, I was in just a black hoodie with a Red Sox hat and 360 who's a short kid with glasses and a Saves the Day hoodie. We were at the little bar up the steps for the opening bands cause we weren't really into them, until Ratatat came on and we went down up front and stood right next to the right speaker which would explain the ringing in my right ear. That show was so good I almost cried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fermentor666 Posted March 6, 2005 Author Share Posted March 6, 2005 Also, I had no idea that Ratatat was that big, the place was packed to the back and it has a capacity of something like 450 people. The crowd was weird as fuck, too, it was like a mash of hipsters and frat boys and MIT nerds. Crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issac Brock Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 yeah ive been loving ratatat for a while, appearently they have some rare mixtape out too other than just their one LP. Some people hate saying that they sound like video game music but yeah they rock. omg0tzWTFh4x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekro Posted March 6, 2005 Share Posted March 6, 2005 I was up in the cafe until Ratatat came on as well. There's a good chance we could have run into each other. I was there with a tall kid with red hair, a nerdy looking kid, and his good looking girlfriend. The crowd was like 1/5 that size in Providence. I agree with you on the crowd: it was like hipsters, MIT kids, and lame people. The hipsters are to be expected, and the MIT characters can be explained by the proximity to the campus. I suppose their are frats at MIT, but I expected them to be full of asian/indian math prodigies. Everyone there was taking themselves far too seriously.
