The Paramount's a cool venue. Saw Pete Yorn and the Foo Fighters there back when.

Yeah. One of the few classic venues still kicking. Saw Bonobo three years ago.

At least Perfume dances as well as sings. Among singers who also dance, show me one group whose choreography is any better than Perfume's.
I'll wait.

I've had the hotel room, and plane ticket, booked for months now. I bought the actual ticket less than fifteen minutes after it became available.

I don't exactly know what the last sentence means--I assume it's a regional saying--but I assume from the first sentence's context that my answer is probably "yes."

How do you like that--a member of my board gets to see Perfume before I do!

What do you say to that, honorentheos?
As I type this, I'm sure Res Ipsa is walking back to his car. When you read this, Res, please start a new thread telling us all how it was. BE HONEST, if you were underwhelmed in one or more ways there's no need to spare my feelings.
As for me, precisely one week from now I'll be heading to my hotel room, dizzy and light-headed with ecstatic euphoria over finally seeing them in concert and being in the same room with all three of them at the same time.

Will do, Shades. TL/DR: I really enjoyed it.
