The Brazilian Girls concert @ River Rocks last night was freakin amazing! The opening band sucked but otherwise :crazy: :eyespop:
It was pretty well organized and a fun event except the sound got ed up, but knowing BG of course they didn't care and just kept on rockin... everyone should come to Brooklyn on 7/11, they will be here in a park, should be a rockin time (I'm bringin smokies next time, there was so much pot last night, and the band ended the set with "Go smoke some pot and impeach the President!" :toocool: ) |
