This was probably the most fun show I have been to since the last time I saw M&K. It blows my mind when people hate on these two. Their shows are just pure joy. Gotta love when Matt incites riots. Just like @ Siren, he did it again last night, telling everyone to crowd surf after security told us they would shut down the show if it didn't stop. Can't wait for the pool/highline/club exit.

The wine was not good.

It's not a matter of "hating on" them, it's just that they seem to ride on their enthusiasm and the music is super ordinary. They may be lovely folks and good performers but that only gets you so far. That said, I think people over a certain age don't get nor are they intended to get it.

So well said pjx. You figure most of the fans of this band are really young or dont have much discerning taste in music. Anything that gets them jumping around is "awesome" and "mind blowing" I dont think it has anything to do with not getting it or intended to get it. I think it is just ordinary and unfortunately what passes for a lot of "good" music these days.

4:00 falls into the "don't get it" category

false dichotomy

Heard the music is mediocre. Can anyone recommend a song that reveals otherwise?

Posted by Anonymous | May 29, 2008 4:46 PM

how's this for an analogy: matt and kim makes me about as happy as "friends" or "scrubs" make me laugh.

if you don't detect sarcasm in this statement, we don't see eye to eye and probably never will.

I'm pretty sick of that "no no no no no" joke. Can we bury that one with the bowsery and daft punk jokes?

Posted by Anonymous | May 29, 2008 5:00 PM

Why is Matt always thrusting his arm in the air?

Posted by Anonymous | May 29, 2008 5:01 PM

no way. bowsery forever

Posted by Anonymous | May 29, 2008 5:11 PM

recent scrubs, yes. older scrubs, no.

bowsery is the new daft

was kyle dean reiford the the scrawny douche in the white shirt in the front row who was yelling at people for dancing near him? if you dont like dancing stick to shooting boring bands or shoot from a safe distance!

drudge,

I noticed that too. jeezz, if you step into the dangerzone stop bitchin' about your equipment. for a change I actually know what I am talking about as I got my cams trashed more than once. if one can't afford to loose equipment one should choose a spot more carefully. this bitchin' and trying to smack people is nothing short of retarded.

i wonder how much they got for swindling wine? and i wonder if they still have sex with each other anymore?

Posted by freddy kruger | May 29, 2008 8:34 PM

the dudes love the beat-keeper's gender-bender haircut. they toooootally still do it

Posted by thatshowtheworldworksright | May 29, 2008 9:14 PM

Matt is really arrogant, Kim is really sweet. Matt & Kim & wine??? I don't think so.

Good Aerobics instructors & Cheerful Pep-Rallyists.

Mediocre musicians and songwriters.

Posted by Anonymous | May 30, 2008 11:13 AM

Posted by kat&mim | May 30, 2008 11:45 AM

the fake smile that is always on kims face is really annoying. and matt talks too much between songs. would not go see them live again.
