As I mentioned in my previous post, some friends and I went to a Black Eyed Peas concert at the Nikon Jones Beach Theater. The Pussycat Dolls were supposed to start for them and we were all looking forward to this. They are HOT!!! Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned.

First, we tried to bring cameras in there, but we couldn’t because they were being anal about the whole thing. We should have cleverly hidden it somehow, like up PaperThin’s ass, but we didn’t so no pics inside the concert, except for camera phone pics. What ticks me off is that so many people had cameras and were snapping away like crazy. Oh well, you win some you loose some.

Second disappointment, and this is the biggie, was the Pussycat Dolls NOT performing because they were “sick.” Instead, they got replaced by Danity Kane, the winners of one of MTV’s Making the Band shows. I never even heard of this group. We were all looking forward to seeing the Pussycat Girls so this totally sucked. If the Danity Kane girls were hot, it might not have been as bad. Unfortunatly, not only did their perfomance suck, but the girls were ugly and fat. We got the thunder thigh girls opening the concert. What a big let down.

Once Black Eyed Peas started, we started having a great time. They were great, and did a fantastic job getting everyone pumped up. They had a great selection of songs, and they had people waving and dancing along. At one point they had everyone light up their cell phones and wave it in the air. At that point, Chickenbutt said “They used to give out light sticks. Now it’s come to this. Where everyone frigging has a cell phone.” He’s right. I guess they are trying to save money. Too bad the savings aren’t passed to us. Anyhow, it was a nice sight to see all these lights swaying with the song.

Overall, we had a great time. Good seats, good music, good weather. I’m a happy camper. Too bad we got the thunder thigh girls instead of the Pussycat Girls. You can’t win them all, I guess.

Famous Dave's BarbequeI went to Long Island today to go to the Black Eyed Peas concert with some friends. On the way, we decided to check out Famous Dave’s Legendary Pit Bar-B-Que. Those of you who knows me knows that I’m a pig. Even if you don’t know me, you should have figured that out from the number of posts about food. Well oink oink then. I thoroughly enjoyed my food there.

We started off with some BBQ chicken wings since my friend, Chickenbutt is a wings fanatic. They were fantastic. I never tasted such sweet and delicious wings. They might have tasted good because I didn’t eat breakfast or lunch. Chickenbutt would say it’s because I’m a pig so if that’s the case so be it. Oink oink it is. Being the pig that I am, I ordered their award winning St. Louis-Style XXL Ribs, “The Big Slab.” Of course, I made it a platter with 2 sides, corn on the cob, some corn bread and fries. J.Ho ordered the same, while PaperThin only ordered half a rack. Chickenbutt and his cousin shared a BBQ feast for 2. We all enjoyed our food. At the end of the meal, I had 4 ribs left, but I finish everything else. J.Ho tried beating me by trying to eat more, but I think he learned his lesson. Don’t mess with a pig like me.

Anyhow, after eating and stuffing ourselves, we headed off for our concert, which I’ll post about next.
