It happened. Cheep bought Massive Attack tickets on a whim and we went to see them at their first date in NYC at the awful Terminal 5. It certainly makes me feel like a jerky, bitter old lady to complain about venues but we must get out of the way that T5 doesn’t always sound the best in comparison to getting spoiled by the sound engulfment that are little venues like Bowery Ballroom and MHOW. Regardless, we danced, we endured the little annoyances of being semi-close and we loved it!
It was my first time seeing them and Cheep’s second. Our bestie Mr. Amaral also joined the drool party over Robert del Naja and Daddy G and the slew of awesome happening on that stage. Their light show and quote overload really guaranteed elation. I was seriously hoping for Tunde Adebimpe to show up and sing one of my favorites from
Heligoland, ‘Pray for Rain’ but it didn’t happen… maybe next time.
