Muse-ic Mondays: Issue 4

I've been thunderstruck.

Last Thursday's Thunderheist concert at The Mod Club was quite the booty-shaking good time.

The last time I saw Thunderheist live was at Call The Office in London, Ontario. It was on a Tuesday night in early April, right before the impending doom of final exams. Compared to the Toronto show, it was much more intimate and much more x-rated. [Sorry, what happens at Call The Office stays at Call The Office, but here's a little taste:]

Yet there's something equally as appealling about being in a sold-out venue with hundreds or even thousands of hands waving in the air and clapping in unison. Sometimes it's nice to just take a look around and watch everyone move to the same beat. It gives me the warm fuzzies.

Feel-good moments aside, I think the tameness of the show probably had something to do with the fact that Isis' parents were in the audience and that she kept mentioning said fact. She was also wearing a tight Beyonce-esque number that seemed to limit her movement.


Nonetheless, Isis' outfit didn't stop her from crowd-surfing and rockin' those sweet vocal chords of hers to the fullest. And Grahm Zilla was all smiles.

 

Venue big or small, I would highly recommend you slap on your finest crunk wear and go see Thunderheist live. Unfortunately, you might have to wait over a year to do so: Thunderheist recently announced on their MySpace page that they will be taking a break in 2010 to work on solo projects.

Until then, keep on jerkin' it.

What is "crunk wear" exactly?

According to our good friend Wikipedia, crunk can be defined as "out-of-control crowd action," so I would describe 'crunk wear' as clothing you can get crazy in!
