In The MIst

Spent an enjoyable evening last night at the Key Arena in Seattle as the Gorillaz were in town.
I'd never paid much mind to the band - kind of liked the idea of their concealed identities/cartoon persona's and what not, but not really listened to them.
My 10 year old son however loves them so he is the reason I went along.
I hadn't been to a concert at an arena for about 20 years so it was a bit of a shock - this was the second shock after pre-buying the tickets last month.
I suppose I can see where some of my money went , they had a slew of 'guests' : Bobby Womack , De La Soul ( pictured & who were incidentally the last band I saw at an arena - London Docklands circa 1989 ) , a brass section , a violin section , an arab section , two guys from The Clash ( must be augmenting their pensions ? I saw them last at Hammersmith Odeon in 1982 ) , some rather tiresome british rappers and a chinese singer. This coupled with some 'pukka visuals' as we used to say back in the day.
I thought I'd be the oldest swinger in town but no , there was older folk than I there.
It was good to smell someone puffing an L too - ahhh , took me back.........
