Concert Reviews - Velvet Revolver and NIN
May. 18th, 2005 03:25 pmNew Star Wars tomorrow!! I'm excited, and praying that it'll be good. And if it sucks, well, it's not like my estimation of the prequels could get any lower....
Wow. There's a ton of amazing Veronica Mars fic out there. I read a bunch last night (and left some half-assed one line feedback comments, sorry). This is so much more satisfying than my expedition into Queer as Folk fic.
Queer as Folk has been on the air much longer, but has very little in the way of decent fic. I wonder if it has to with audience--does VM appeal to a demographic that is more likely to write good fanfiction? Or is it that VM is a better show? Or maybe it's just that I like a popular character on VM--Logan--whereas I have an unpopular viewpoint regarding QaF--I don't want Brian to "settle down," and if he does, it should be with Michael.
Oh, and, sidenote: it's amazing how many Buffy fans are also in VM fandom. I think that more Buffy fans than I realized watched BtVS in spite of the supernatural, not because of it. Whereas it's not very likely that I'll get into something that doesn't have sci-fi or supernatural or at least action.
I thought this was funny. My friend
jaydk reads LJ, but hasn't seen VM. So she calls me:
jaydk: I'm bored, entertain me.
rusty_halo: You should try watching Veronica Mars; I just watched the whole first season, and it's decent.
jaydk: Oh god, you're not one of those mad obsessed Logan fans now, are you?
Oh, yeah, I keep meaning to post about this. In addition to watching the first season of Veronica Mars this weekend, I also went to three concerts.
( Saturday - Velvet Revolver )
( Sunday - Nine Inch Nails )
( Monday - Nine Inch Nails )
( ...and a bunch of memes and quiz results )
