keytar

i'm on the phone with Andrea and she's watching the Killers on Austin City Limits. she's watching them and i'm listening to her watch them which is only mildly irritating. i have no idea why there's a lag, but i'll be able to watch it, literally, right after her. PBS needs to get their timing shit together.

apparently, the set is The Killers and Spoon...and i love them both...i love Spoon with the burning passion of 14yr old boy at the local pool in Aug. the only thing not making this musical tease insufferable is her serenading me on the phone. Andrea NEVER sings. even in her softened old age, there are some things she flat out refuses. however, she loves Brandon like said 14yr old boy and therefore...she sings.

as she's singing, she said, "do know what i love about this band? they brought the keyboard back." the funny thing is that i just thought the same thing about Spoon last night when i saw them in concert. i thought, "how cool would they be if the keyboardist stood up and strapped on his keytar and just rocked out with the lead singer?" that would be so fucking hot. he's pounding away at the keys while writhing around on the floor. you have to be on a whole other level of cool to even think about bringing back the keytar.

that, my friend, is balls.
