The Mars Volta

Tonight I went to go see The Mars Volta. They're a band out of California (I think) that is progressive rock/progressive hard rock/concept album band sort of. Imagine the Grateful Dead doing Frank Zappa interpretations of Led Zeppelin songs (if you understand that combination reference, congratulations, you're wierd), on major drugs (I guess that goes without saying) with congas and latin beats (the two main dudes are Mexican). The concert was really good. Not incredible, but when you do a 20 minute version of a song that was only on an independent EP, some people may let their minds wander. Very trippy though. I myself don't do drugs, that's why I go to these shows.
Lots of kids too, which means that I'm getting old. I kept looking around and wanting to yell (like Denis Leary) "PULL UP YOUR PANTS!" You'd think these dudes with the saggy pants would grow out of that trend. Nope. They just get lower. Like I said, I guess I'm getting older.
