If you were to check here you would see that I said Portishead was a very subtle band. They sure are most of the time. They have a concert on Current tonight that should be pretty interesting. They went back to their old school and did a show in the drama room.
Their new album comes out in a few weeks and they will probably be playing only new material so I thought I would let you know how much I enjoyed their new music. It is really just what I was looking for. It is very Portishead but it isn't like what they did 10 years ago. It is hard to explain what is different but it sure is. Sometime it is like old Portishead and sometimes it is like Terminator 2 but most of the time it is like Eraserhead so that is pretty good.
One time during Spring Break my family and I went to Dallas to see Portishead at the Bowlerama. It was getting close to Spring Break and I don't think Angelene and I had anything to do and I needed something to wear to prom. (This is a picture of me at a simulated prom.) I got a very nice Versace green velvet suit that judging by that photo is very large but it was the style at the time. People thought it was crazy amazing so that is all that mattered.
It was a little slow. I liked it but there weren't enough beats. Too bad.
That Texas trip was one of the greatest times ever.
They are probably just getting old.
I think it might be their last live concert was so polished they just wanted to do something simple. Maybe they are getting old too but Dallas was great.
