In all the years that H1 and I have been working at Rockefeller Plaza, as we have said before on this blog, we have had to endure rubbish mini-concerts as we walk past Rock. Centre on mornings.
Every summer, with assaulted ears, we shove through the throngs of old people, of tweens, of thugs, and emos (a tween is an emo though, so I suppose I am being redundant), depending on who is playing.
This year alone we have had to woefully experience Hannah Montana, NKOTB, Fergie, Kings of Leon Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey and Bon Jovi (twice, in two weeks - he was there this morning after being there for Veterans Day).
Last year for the first time, we had a bit of a pleasant shock when R.E.M. performed. It was the pinnacle moment of glory in our six plus years of working in the area.
There's a saying H1 and I utter every time we go by and say to the screaming clusters..."unless it's Arctic Monkeys or MUSE, MOVE ALONG!"
That day has yet to come but we're one step closer to greatness...
MUSE will be performing on December 19th, 2009 at Rockefeller Center for their performance on SNL!!!!!!
Beetchie and X, will you two come with? Please?
Edit on 12/18/2009: And just like that, we're now two steps closer to greatness. The performance is indoors, so no standing in the cold for me tomorrow. Ah well. At least our future is not as bleak as it once was.
