SA Bands Rock more that US bands...

I was at the Maroon5/One Republic concert that went down at The Dome in Northgate in Joburg.

And I got to say, SA bands Gold Fish and the Parlotones proved to be hotter, better performers and got the crowds screaming, singing along and dancing to their music.

Perhaps I am a bit naive or appear as a pessimist about what I am saying, but this was I believe my 1000nth concert if not more, and I know this; SA bands might be used as opening acts but they rock and put on a better show better than US bands.

I have seen this also at The Game, 50cent, Puff Johnson concerts and it irritates me that they are not cherished just as much.

This time, I have to say One Republic was even better than Maroon 5, meaning if I was to rate them from best to worst, M5 would be the worst out of all the performances I went to see that day.

Oh they did sing my favourite songs they do: Sunday Morning, She will be loved and Wont Go home Without You. If it wasn't for the impressive drummer or the lighting, my word, I could have fallen asleep at the show.

One Republic, are okay, not the best thing since sliced bread but they were cool, except for the fact that I thought they only have 2 songs ever Stare and Apologize, they were so so...

The Parlotones, are in and they are here to stay, guys you are the best performers of rock I know of in SA. And Gold Fish, what more can I say...You know you rock!
