Pardon my french, but that’s the actual name of the band. What can I say about this show.
It was insane.
It was awesome.
It was fantastic!!!!!!!
Really, it was so great! Just one of those shows that is fun to be at, fun to listen to, fun to watch, and immensely fun to photograph. OK, first, who is Fucked up. you ask? It’s a great hardcore punk band out of Toronto Canada. Damien, the lead singer, spent pretty much the whole show either crowd surfing or on the barrier. I love a band/frontman who interacts so intensely with the audience. And intense it was. Tons of crowd surfing fans, all trying to surf their way over to Damien. Damien screaming into his mic while face to face with fans. Now I know not everyone is a fan of hardcore punk, and that’s fine. I’m not a fan of all music either, and I wouldn’t say that I’m a hardcore fan of hardcore punk, but there are some bands who make their shows so fun that I can’t help but become a fan. Ok, ok, so for me it’s not all about the music, it’s about the whole experience. I mean, there are bands whose music I love, but live? just hohum. I think this was the first time I’ve seen the security crew pulling up the pants of an artist while he was performing. I suppose that while they are holding him up on the barrier, they realized they would rather be holding some sweating shorts than, well, naked parts.
