Tegan & Sara // Ms. Lauryn Hill // Culture Club

Happy Hump Day #skeezies
#LAskeez has today's top three concert recommendations for you all. The fan favorites are always the FREE shows so we will start with that. 





Tegan and Sara. These identical twin sisters have some of the most loyal fans around. Today they will be performing at the OC Fair and Event Center in Costa Mesa for FREE. Doors open at 7pm. The first 100 fans will be treated to complimentary valet and if you drive a Lexus, you get some sort of upgrade hook up. This is a 21+ only event and RSVPing is required. If you felt bad about missing their show yesterday at the Hollywood Palladium, today will more than make up for that. 






Another OC event going on is Lauryn Hill at the Observatory.  Forget about her past antics of showing up late to her own shows, she should be on time tonight. For about $60+ a ticket she better. Lauryn Hill tonight almost sounds too good to be true. 




Bringing it back to LA! The Culture Club should of been performing tonight at the Shrine Auditorium and Expo Center. Unfortunately, the reunion was cancelled two days ago due to Boy George's medical condition. Hopefully he recovers soon! And hopefully you #skeezies got your money back!

Boy George Review/ Mean Girls : "Wednesdays We Wear Pink"

I always considered Boy George to be an edgy trendsetter. Someone who lives on the edge. But time and finding Jesus can definitely make a person change and that is exactly what happened last night. 
After hearing 45 minutes worth of songs about God, Jesus, and "My God is bigger than your God"-- #LAskeez was almost ready to make a u-turn out of the venue when he finally played "Do you really want to hurt me?",  along with some other classics.  For all you Culture Club fans out there #LAskeez has some #skeez for you #skeezies ----The Culture Club is set to start recording a new album this year! Typically after a band records an album they go on tour so expect some good things later this year. You heard it first from #LAskeez
As far as the Belasco Theater is concerned, it is in some desperate need of ventilation! People where sweating buckets inside the venue and that is just not acceptable. This wasn't an underground warehouse show so there should of been a few pocket holes of air circulating the joint.

Mean Girls

"On Wednesdays we wear pink"
My oh my how time flies. 
Today is the 10 year anniversary of Mean Girls!
Mean Girls was an automatic pop culture phenomena much in the same way as the movie Clueless.
Gays, teens, and everyone else will find the antics in the movies relatable and hilarious for years to come. Undoubtedly a timeless classic. 

Although the movie is funny from beginning to end; #LAskeez's narrowed it down to 5 of our favorite scenes. 

1. "Wednesdays We Wear Pink" 

2. "Evil took a human form in Regina George"


3. "If you're going to drink, I'd rather you do it in the house"

4. "She doesn't even go here" 

5. "I can't go to Taco Bell, I'm on an ALL CARB DIET"

Re-watch Mean Girls today in honor of the 10 year anniversary! Its just as funny as if you watched it for the first time 10 years ago today.  





LA Sports recap: 

Clippers beat the Warrios 103-113. 
If you happened to have a billion dollars laying around consider
buying this NBA team that will be for sale soon.

Kings play the Sharks tonight at 7:00pm for a game 7. 

Dodgers play the Twins tonight at 5:10pm. Go BLUE!

Boy George

Boy George.
Known as apart of the Culture Club in the early 80's and then became his own house hold name. 
It's been YEARS since he last went on tour. 
BUT tonight he will be performing at the Belasco Theater in Downtown Los Angeles. 
#LAskeez is excited to check out the venue and Boy George for the first time. So excited that #LAskeez may show up with random braids and colored ribbons in our hair.
From what #LAskeez knows about the Belasco Theater is that it was constructed in the mid 1920s, 
since then it's been through many owners and changes; but was recently restored back to it's original state in 2011.
Be ready #skeezies for tomorrow's full report on the show. 

Here are #LAskeez's top 5 Culture Club songs:

1. Culture Club--Time

2. Culture Club--Do You Really Want To Hurt Me

3. Culture Club--Karma Chameleon

4. Culture Club--I'll Tumble 4 Ya

5. Culture Club--Miss Me Blind


Boy George followed up by sports are typically not in the same sentence but that's #LAskeez for you and that's why the #skeezies keep reading. 

Sports Recap:

Los Angeles Kings beat the San Jose Sharks 1-4 yesterday and force a game 7 tomorrow at 7:00pm.

The Clippers face the Golden State Warriors tonight for Game 5 of the playoffs. Tip off is at 7:30pm.
