Brother oh brother

I'm the type of person that is usually up for any type of music, except rap. Last night I tried to sit through a Brother concert to see someone I knew dance with them (she's part of an Irish dance group) and I couldn't do it. After a few songs I was bored to tears. My boyfriend actually fell asleep sitting upright in his chair.

Tonight after roaming the fest and not finding anything special we came upon one of the more crowded tents and since we forgot our schedule we decided to stick around and see who was there. Oh brother it was Brother. Tonight their music wasn't as terribly boring as yesterday but it still didn't rub me the right way.

Now I'm part Irish so I like the celtic and irish music but I can't seem to understand why they draw such a large crowd. I don't know, I guess it's just me and it's not my thing.

Maybe someone can tell me what's so great about them but honestly I would rather listen to rap music that I hate of this group. (no offense to the people that like them, like I said they just aren't for me)

Hey!!
I'm the girl that you came to see dance with them..lol! I wondered why I didnt get to see you afterwards..either night...lol!! Personally they have some good songs and others get a little drabby. But you pic your favs!! I think the fact that they are so different and extreme..between the didges and hairdos...like Hamish's let people experience something different. It makes you feel like you are somewhere else and experiencing the real down under. Also the members of the band are really nice people and love to chat and get pictures afterwards. They really do love their fans and if you experience this first hand then you would understand part of it!! The music is an experience in itself, b/c you can't hear it on just any radio station. I think they are an awesome group...and not just because my group danced with them! I have been following them for a few years back. They are very talented and put on a really good show...and this time including us!!! So thanks to all who came out to see!!! Just wanted to drop this commentary!! Thanks G!!! See ya next week!!!
