You and me baby, we ain’t nothing but mammels so let’s do it like they do on the discovery channel. To non-Bloodhound Gang fans that is probably all you will know of them but others will recognise classics as The Ballad of Chasey Lane and The Roof is on Fire.
They were playing today at Leeds Met. I only found out a few days ago and reminded on Monday night (possibly Tuesday morning actually, it was pretty late) so I went down to Leeds Met’s union and picked up a ticket, in the rain I might add, earlier today.
I turned up at the gig and met up with Tom and Ian from Grant house (aka, the house I’m in) and Matt from Seton house as well as a few girls that were hanging with them.
The gig itself was billed with two support bands but only on one website, the promo stuff just listed Electric Eel Shock who were the only support band that played in the end. They came on at like 8:00 and played a 40 minute set.
They were pretty good. They’re a Japanise band and all pretty mad. The frontman was entertaining and got the crowd going and the bassist was just wasted. He climbed on top of the piles of amplifers a few times. The drummer was cool too, he started just bashing the drums with his hands then playing the drums with two sticks in each hand.
At 9:00 (probably later actually, maybe as late as like 9:20) the Bloodhound Gang came on and with the acceptation of like a 10 minute break they played through until almost 11:00. They played pretty much everything they had with the exception of The Lap Dance is Better when the Strippers Crying.
They were awesome. They invited the audience to spit on one of the guitarists and to celebrate Leeds being “the binge drinking capital of Europe” (or so they claimed but it’s not impossible as nobody binge drinks like the British and nobody parties like Leeds ;)) he downed an entire bottle of alchol – not one of those alcho-pop bottles, a propper spirits bottle. He later threw it all up over Jimmy Pop’s ass, at Jimmy’s invitation no less.
