Brock and Phil had an extra ticket to go see Butch Walker Tuesday night, so I snagged it. Brock’s been talking up Butch a lot (he once saw 4 shows in as many days). Time to see what all the fuss was about.
We got to the Metro around 7:20 or so. The first of the opening bands (The Fags) was midway through their set. While I didn’t mind their music, I’m glad we came in the middle, since all of their songs sounded mostly the same. The highlight of the set was when the drummer poured some water onto his right drum to kick up a spray when he hit it. When the water bottle ran out, he tossed it into the crowd and the band stopped to watch it fly. It came right for us and Phil stretched out his arm and caught it. It was so sweet.
Next band was called Low Millions and they had two things going: one of their guitar players was a hard rockin’ Asian (always cool) and also their lead dude looked like Steve Gutenberg. Maybe they only had one thing going.
Then came the man.
I must admit that I was expecting someone older and… balder. I don’t know, “Butch Walker” sounds like the name of some troubadour like David Gray. Anyway, Butch has long stringy black hair and tattoos and rocks the hell out. The crowd was a diverse mix of teenagers and people in their 30s. But they all loved Butch. One guy had a “Butch” tattoo on his arm and this girl in front of us was insane for the man. She alternately raised her hands to the stage in ecstatic prayer and ran them through her hair in musical ecstasy (she kissed the other dude’s tattoo, even though they didn’t know each other).
The show itself was awesome. Usually when El and I go, we stand on the balcony. This time I was right on the floor, getting slammed by the sound waves. It was funny standing with Brock and Phil and Carla, since they’re all over 5′10″ and I… am not. Like I said, Butch rocks the hell out and his lyrics are pretty good. It was spiffy.
I’m not ready to get a tattoo or anything though.
