I saw Franz Ferdinand last night in SF!

it was super fantastic! amazing! jolly good! the first band, the tyde, was very good. they have a very sunny californian-ish sound. this was franz ferdinand's setlist: cheating on you, tell her tonight, shopping for blood, jacqueline, van tango, take me out, love and destroy, truck stop (auf achse), dark of the matinee, come on home, 40 feet, michael, darts of pleasure, and this fire. i was dancing like a mad woman, the band was full of energy, everything was just perfect. we (me and isabella) were right at the stage, in the center. i asked the roadie for the setlists for both of us, so we got them afterwards, we stuck around to meet the band. we took pictures, got autographs, etc. they were all very nice we also met this lady who videotaped the show, and she's gonna send me a copy!

if you ever get the chance to see them...GO! simply amazing. i'll post pictures later, if i can.

:D:P

They played at slim's! Hehehe...can't get enough of that place, I guess

It was pretty good...better than when Ima Robot played there.

Anyway, I must be off now, I have swing dance practice! Talk to you later

I'm back...only 4 people (including me) out of 12 showed up...how sad

I also drove to both Long's and Albertson's to try and get these pictures developed, but they both said that the one hour photo machines were broken! Bastards....

You're welcome

Well, slim's is a very small venue, but the show was sold out. Maybe around 300 people? I have no clue, but the place seemed pretty packed. It was nice to see that the crowd was actually dancing :D

How many people were at the Frankfurt show?

Where are you gonna see them?

I got there around 6 or 6:30, and no one was in line (doors opened at 8). Most people started showing up closer to 7.

The earlier the better though, you can never be too sure what the crowd's going to be like.

Good luck :D

Good for you (and Noisemaster)! Love and Destroy and Van Tango are good I like 'em all, hehe

Aw, too bad you couldn't make it. Hopefully they'll play more shows here soon. I'm glad I got to see them at their first show in SF :D

Yeah, slim's has a cool vibe. The sound's not the greatest, but I've had a kick-ass time both time's I've been there :D

At the Fine Line, Minneapolis, June 11. seems so far away

Noisemaster-yes, Van Tango and Love&Destroy are b-sides.

And inlimbo-that does seem far away you'll make it...it's always nice to have something to look forward to for a while. When you're feeling down, just think, "I'm gonna see Franz Ferdinand!" :D

Yay...I get to pick up my pictures today! :D

I would say that!! Ha!

LOL...I remember when I first came on this site and was listening to one of the radio shows....then all of a sudden, "Kendra from CA..." blah blah blah "is stoked" or something along those lines, hehehe

I was thinking, "hey! I know her!" :D

I almost peed my pants when he read that!!!

I'll bet! At that point in time, did you already know them?

Alright, Ms. Kendra...it's time for "Family Guy"! Good night for now...I'll be back in the a.m.
