Murder by Death

Blurb my brain:
Yeah, so I bought tickets to see a show 3 hours away with the fiancé. He really is the greatest person in the world. He drove to pick me up, and drove me back to see a band he's never heard. Granted he didn't pay for the tickets. But I still had a blast.

A band called Brass Monkey played first and they had kind of a Murder By Death and Decemberists mix to them. I enjoyed them but they played forever! It was like an hour and a half that they were on stage. I went through a beer and a vodka red bull by the time they left the stage.

Then Los Vigilantes took the stage, and it was a totally different feeling. They are more punkrock, and sang in Spanish because they were from Puerto Rico. One of the band members even said that this was the highest they have ever been. The only bad part of their performance is that they started a hipster mosh pit and Fiancé kept having to fling hippies. That was very funny. (by the way, my phone autocorrected "hippies" to "hippos" which sent me into a rant about how completely opposite those two things are) But the lead singer stopped and took out his knife and threatened the mosh pit for hurting the girls around them.

Then Murder By Death was up. They started with Kentucky Bourbon and then went to As Long As There Is Whiskey In The World. I don't remember what was next, but they eventually played Fuego! In which I almost raped Fiancé. If you've never heard Murder By Death, listen to the above mentioned songs and you'd see why. His voice is so deep it makes my panties all hot and in a bunch. So I continued recording the show and ended up using the remaining space on my phone. I ran out of room in Brother, which pissed me off because I was recording it for my brother.

Fiancé did not enjoy the show. But I had an absolutely fantastic time. I had been waiting so long to see Murder By Death. My ex got me into them my sophomore year in high school and i never got to see them since they aren't a very famous band. They don't tour very many cities. The show was just so high energy, and so much fun, and so much what I expected it to be.

I am a very satisfied Alyssa. :)
