THE TING TINGS WERE AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEYHGOAUNGOEUAHGOUEANOGUNAE.
its 1.01 am and im WIPED OUT cause i went nuts jumping and singing but i had a blasttttttt.
and they are such a cool two-man group!!!!!!!!!!

the gig tonight was actually part of this event thing- big night out
so there were other act such as local band forced vomit and wiley from the uk.
i quite liked forced vomit!
their tunes were great :D
wiley was less of my kind of thing.
like british rappers dont really suit my music taste.
and with lyrics such as 'roses are red, violets are blue' and 'one glass of champagne for me, two glasses of champagne for me, three glasses of champagne for me, and now do the rolex wheel!'

then it was the ting tings and although it was a longggggggggggggg wait, it was SO FREAKING WORTH WHILE.
they opened with we walk and the crowd went NUTZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ, including me HAHA.
i was jumping and singing and shouting and ahhhhhhhhhh and i was exhausted after the first song already HAHA.
they played the whole album and it's actually one of my all time favourite albums cause its rare that you like practically every song on the album.
the only other albums that i really like are muse's black holes and revelations, muse's absolution, travis's the boy with no name and the cranberries' bury the hatchet.

ok anyway the music quality was really good, and there were tons of fantastic improvisations.
and the two of them are really talented and really gave their all for the performance.
for him, one moment he's playing the drums and the next he has to change to playing the guitar and operating a leg drum thing and the next moment he's operation some dj set HAHA.
for her, she plays several different guitars throughout the gig and the next she's hitting drums and cowbells and the next she's running around and about and ALWAYS singing her heart out.
the both of them had to play instruments AND sing at the same time and i ALWAYS respect that.

the ting tings creates really feel good music and everyoneeeeeee was having a great time, jumping around and waving their hands or singing along and i think the audience was awesome too!
the band also knew just how to work the crowd, absolutely talented.
they were very sincere too, always expressing their thanks.
especially katie the singer, SHE'S SO CUTE CAN.
do give their album a try!
