Overheard at the Wolf Parade Show Last Night

Saw the Wolf Parade show last night at Webster Hall, which was a scorcher. (More on that TK...) The opening act was a band called Holy Fuck. They were...I don't know, kind of a noise jam band or something. I liked their sound and generally enjoyed the show, but with the exception of their closing tune I felt like their songs didn't actually, like, go anywhere. Then again, I've never really been a big jam band fan. It's good for a song to stretch out and work out some variations, but for the most part that's just not my thing. So don't take my lukewarm review on them as necessarily a bad thing--your results may vary.

I don't know why I'm apologizing here for not loving Holy Fuck. I think I'm worried that maybe Holy Fuck's mom is going to read this and I'll feel really bad, and the comments section will be all this stuff about how I don't know how hard it is to make Holy Fuck music and it's real easy to tear stuff down but real hard to actually build something nice and I should try that sometime and see how I like it when someone goes on the Internets and makes fun of something I tried really hard to make.

Anyways, this isn't about my subjective review of Holy Fuck, who, in fairness, seemed like really nice guys and, with maybe a little more control from, say, a strong producer (the DFA?) they could be really excellent.

So before the last song, an Overheard with the two fratty guys standing next to me.

Lead Singer from Holy Fuck: "Thanks for coming out tonight. We're from Toronto and we don't come to New York all that often."
Dude #1, yelling: "Good! You suck!"
Dude #2: "Hey man, that's not right. I like these guys, they're pretty good."
Dude #1: "Yeah, I guess you're right. I'm sorry I insulted them."
Dude #2: "Don't apologize to me, apologize to the band."
Dude #1: "Go fuck yourself."
