Warsaw is a strange place. Went to see Pagoda there last night. The bar and diner area, man, its just like a hipster high school cafeteria. I swear I even saw a punch lady with a hairnet and a nose ring, I swear, I fucking swear.
Michael Pitt looked a lot like Kurt Cobain. This was the point, I guess. He kept coming right up in front of me and slamming his guitar down and his blond hair rained down over his face and it was a like a ghost throwing a tantrum right in front of me, back from the dead. It was a little creepy.
He made the same strained expressions like Kurt did when he sung. He had a scab on his finger and smelled like chocolate and cigarettes. More so like chocolate.
The audience kept booing and saying ridiculous hurtful things that pertained to Michaels movies and Nirvana. Michael would smile an eerie genuine smile that really belonged to no one, not even him.
After the set he picked up an amp near the drum set and threw it on the floor. He picked it up again and threw it down, stomped on it, picked it up, broke it into chunks that came flying out at us. I thought I was going to get some pieces in my eyes but I didn't back away, because enthralling moments like these at rock shows nowadays are rare. A few teenage girls put the broken amp pieces in their pockets when they couldnt have his guitar pic.
He was really pissed and said nothing as he gathered his things and walked off stage.
He just seemed lost and bewildered by his own fame
Remind you of anyone?

Pieces of amp in the side of you head sucks as well.
Please join the City of New York and Friends of the High Line at the Cedar Lake Theater for a High Line design update from Field Operations and Diller Scofidio + Renfro, the design team currently at work on plans for the High Line's transform-ation to public open space. The presentation will focus on the schematic design for the first section of the Line to be constructed, from Gansevoort Street to 20th Street. Much new material has been developed since the last Public Design Presentation, in May 2005 (read the Q & A from the May Design Presentation). The presentation will be followed by an open question-and-answer session. The team's schematic design will continue to evolve, under the guidance of the City of New York and Friends of the High Line, in the subsequent design development phase, and community input will play a vital role in this process.
Space is limited and reservations are required, so RSVP by February 10 to secure your seat.
