311 | "amber"| from chaos | 2001
311 isn’t my normal cup-o’-tea, but my wife treated me to their show tonight and they’ve got some nice sounds. we didn’t know until she got the tickets that snoop dogg was opening. the snoopy d-o-double-gizzle has some great shizzle to mix at the disco-dizzle, but man that dude’s mouth is foul! 311 seems to be shaping up to be our generation’s grateful dead -- they have quite the loyal following whose devotion to mary jane only is greater than its love for 311. that combination made a middle-aged dad/prosecutor/sometime religion professor feel a little out-of-place, but we had fun nevertheless. my wife’s friend joined us and it was fun to see them get into their groove irrespective of the pot party to the right and the drunken fight that broke out to the left.
