Have yall gone to any authentic concerts lately? Do u go in a pack of friends, or do u go alone? I know that there’s a lot of time to kill until the concert starts, since bands are such primadonnies these days, but have u ever taken ur iPod 2 a concert?
Is this some new Apple initiative to appeal to the most authentic people on the planet? Concerts are kind of lame when u have to listen to music inbetween sets, because the sound board guy is usually some bro who was born before 1976, and he is eager to ‘impress u with his taste/appreciate for the past.’ So maybe we should all start bringing iPods to shows. I’m not rlly sure–I’m just a blogger. But I do know that 1 time my iPod came in handy one time when I used the GPS system on my iPod shuffle.
It would be nice if you took ur earbuds out when the band was playing, though. I know that in high school and college classrooms across the country, kids are trying to listen 2 music instead of listening 2 their teacher. Kinda weird. Makes me think that they don’t even appreciate music–they are only concerned with how their personal brand looks since they have an iPod. I guess that’s life, tho. I was probably that way with digipets/pogs when I was a lilmainstreamAlt.
Is Apple Vs. Microsoft the initial battle that leads into the ElectroWar? Worried, yall.

is it really a personal brand, then? isn’t it just a trademark brand if your into buying ipods, other i stuff, and other stuff from the mall?
also, that looks like a fugly convention not a concert. also, i thought alts called them ’shows’ not concerts.

Carles I was at a concert last night and the guy in front of me had one earphone in the whole time. He wasn’t alt at all. I was about to make fun of him but then I wondered if he maybe had a hearing problem and was using his iPod as a hearing aid robot.

The two blacks doesn’t look very happy, unlike the bro with the yellow hat who seems to be fingering himself.

the black girl and the white girl right at the front are both doing the exact same facial expression except in reverse to each other, like some big invisible interracial mirror.

I always keep my original iPod headphones on whenever I’m out and about in the city, in hopes that someone will ask me what I’m listening to so I can tell them and then have them be all like “I never heard of ‘em.”…and then I’ll be all like “yeah, they…I dont listen to mnstrm stuff…I like alot of alt stuff…..ever heard of a band called
The Justices?”

So, as a frequent concert goer I’ve noticed people reading newspapers and books once in a while… Pretty lame, but this is a whole new level. Who was playing at this show?

microsofts downfall will lead to epic proportions of mainstreamers turning to macbooks and signing up for battle in the electro wars. us authentic mac users must then purchase mac pros (because they kinda look like g4’s when looked upon from afar)
intel macs = mainstream

and now I’m wondering where exactly IS this? it look like a theatre but then there is that big M billboard on the left side.
I have NEVER seen anyone wearing headphones at a concert or a show. maybe thats becuase I only listen to good bands. FYI shows are in clubs and concerts are in “music venues” or theatres.
