An Order of Rock n' Roll, Please

Brownies 38th St. Oct. 2004

We all have our own likes and dislikes. We all have different tastes in music. Therefore we go to bars where we can here the music we want to hear. People would go to a Spanish club to dance Salsa or Merengue, to a Jazz bar to listen to Jazz, to a hip-hop club to listen to hip-hop and etc.

Mo Faux (pronounced Mo-Foh), french word for something "fake", right.... Is it? This is the first band I heard who played so much hip-hop in an Irish bar ever!!! From Nelly's "Hot In Here" to LL Cool J's "Momma Said Knock You Out" and some old school hip-hop songs, this band was like Eminem in embroidered shirt, tight jeans and long hair.?! Watup wid dat?! I went to an Irish bar to hear some alternative music and rock and roll and I get this?? I should've stayed in Shampoo or went to Egypt.

But in all honesty though, this band sounds good. They can Hip-Hop Hooray themselves all they want because they really do sound great singing these kind of songs. It is also safe to say that they played Incubus and some other alternative music and they sounded awesome too. I'm sorry, but when the DJ is spinning hip-hop and RnB for about an hour, when it's time for the band to play, please give us some Rock n Roll!!!

Have you seen a band lately?
