Concerto

This past Friday I was at the PNC Bank Arts Center in New Jersey to see the Projekt Revolution tour featuring Linkin Park, Korn, Snoop Dogg and others in a showcase of bands who aren't very good spellers. However, it did make for an interesting show. Snoop Dogg was his usual high self, calling the crowd "Jones Beach" a few times before being filled in that he wasn't even in the same state as Jones Beach. And no, he did not once call us "Jonizzle Beachizzle." There's no way that guy stopped smokin the ganja. Snoop should just do a tour with Willie Nelson and Cypress Hill and call it the "Where the Fuck Are We? Tour." Linkin Park played for over an hour, though I can't tell you which songs they played cuz they're all the same really. The "retired" Jay-Z made a surprise appearance for their encore and did a little of "99 Problems" and "Big Pimpin'." Strange cuz I thought he moved to a retirement village in Florida, where pimpin' of any size has to be approved by board members. Must've been in town visiting the grandkids. The show had its share of middle fingers and F-bombs, which I'm gettin kinda tired of in my old age. I hear enough of that on the streets and from Dick Cheney, and people applaud when rock stars curse them out but get angry when the guy behind them in line at the drugstore says it. Rock stars already get plenty of money and chicks, so let's commend them when they call us all motherfuckers.
