Kings of Leon //Dj Shadow & Cut Chemist

It's finally Friday! #Skeezies rejoice! 

Like any other day, #LAskeez has your concert needs covered. 

With that being said, Kings Of Leon will be performing at the Hollywood Bowl! Today is oddly warm which means this evening at the Bowl will be absolutely perfect. Here's a classic video to get you pumped for tonight. 

DJ Shadow & Cut Chemist are bringing their talents over to the Hollywood Palladium tonight! So if you missed them last night it's all good, no one wants to drive to the OC anyway.

The War on Drugs are going strong for a third consecutive night of performing. They will be at the Fonda theatre jamming out.

Dodgers are finally playing their first game of the post season tonight against the St. Louis Cardinals !!! The Chavez Ravine will be full of energy tonight so make sure to tune in at 3:30 pm! 

Thievery Corporation // Die Antwoord

Nothing like waking up late on a weekend. 

There's two shows #LAskeez needs to inform the #skeezies about.

First up, the Thievery Corporation.

It's not every day you get a decent band from Washington D.C. so why not check out this one today at the beautiful Greek theatre. Definitely take a small blanket tonight, it gets chilly up there during the late night hours.

Next up, Die Antwoord. 

#LAskeez has been talking about these guys for the last two days but that's because they've been nonstop playing all over the place. The only difference is that they have FINALLY made it out to LA and will be playing at the Hollywood Palladium.

Now some quick Dodgers talk. 

Surprise, surprise, they beat the Colorado Rockies last night 4-7.

They play again at the Chavez Ravine at 6:10pm. So make sure to tune in. 

  

Hollywood Palladium to the Echo -- Jessy Lanza/ Cut Copy/ Kelela Reviews

I must admit going to two shows in one night was a little tiring but nothing #LAskeez couldn't handle. After circling the near by blocks a few times around the Palladium (I refuse to pay for parking, it's the principle!) I found parking and made it inside with 5 mins to spare.

Jessy Lanza started her set but she had this sense of uneasiness during her first song. Once her first song ended she ran off stage to grab a power cord for her laptop. After the power cord crisis was resolved, the set continued and everyone danced like there was no tomorrow minus the guy two feet away from me, he oddly enough kept trying to start a mosh pit--I think he was at the wrong show but who knows maybe that's just how he dances. 

Cut Copy was of course Cut Copy. They started their set with newer songs and saved their older material towards the end.

Oh and did I mention #LAskeez met Jessy Lanza (again)?

Here some photos from last night.

Cut Copy "free your mind"

WAIT there's more! Night didn't stop here my #skeezies!! Off to The Echo #LAskeez went! Parking was found almost instantaneously (total score). I walked in right when Kelela started her FIRST set in Los Angeles. My vibe switched to a fun electronic-ness to smooth operator/shut up and listen to these soulful vocal chords. I left the show convinced that Kelela is ready to become a star.  She shared with the audience how she was a telemarketer and almost lost her job while listening to the track of "Bank Head" on the job. With her voice I'm sure she was a great telemarketer and probably the only telemarketer I wouldn't hang up on but let's face it she was definitely destined to be using her voice to entertain and move everyone that listens. Don't kill me for saying this if you disagree but #LAskeez would compare her to a female version of The Weekend but 10x.

Live videos from both shows are to be uploaded soon. For now I hope the #skeezies have enjoyed the photos.

Kelela @ The Echo April 1st, 2014 

What's the #Skeez today?!?

Let's just say #LAskeez enjoyed Kelela's set more than peanut butter loves jelly so #LAskeez will be headed down to The Echo AGAIN to catch her second and final show here in LA before she takes off to NYC.
