"However, those who can only describe a band as "dancey" or "electro-ey" should stick to what their good at, and write about what the bands looked like, and how funny they were in between songs. You decide what kind of writer we are." Hmmm... the kind of writer that doesn't know the difference between "their" and "they're," or doesn't care enough to edit?

I caught the Donnas at Stubb's last night. I too was very cold. But the girls rocked out with their figurative cocks out. Unfortunately, most of the crowd was scratching their chins, wondering what significance the Donnas play in the zeitgeist to shake their asses. Billy Idol? Not so much. He lost me on his new tune "Bodysnatcher." Additionally, he made the unforgivable mistake of NOT ending his show with "White Wedding."
