Here's a band that was always fun to see. Gavin really
kicked ass. He always tried to downplay the fact that he's so incredibly good
looking. The first time I saw Bush X (I'll tell you the story about
that fucking X deal later) but gave up the second time I saw them and just went
with it. Both times I saw them, they played for about 2 1/2 hours
straight. Lots of energy, lots of chicks, lots of good rockin tunes.
I mean the band is NAMED after PUSSY for Christ sake. It's gotta be
good! I became an instant fan even though I had free tickets the first time I saw them
and didn't even know a single song the band played. I had to ask some
chick standing next to me, who is in the band and where is he gonna be standing
etc etc... Now I know there's no place but centre stage for Gavin
Rossdale. I don't give a fuck what anybody thinks, I think this guy was
great. And he's fucking Gwen Stephani the goddess of goddesses!!!
You gotta have SOME respect for that at least!!! Now for the X deal. Only in Canada did Bush get called Bush X for the first few years of their career. Why? Because of some lame ass band who last put out an album back in 1972! Who? Bush? Never fucking heard of them. You're done with. Game over. NEXT PLEASE. Yeah, so Bush had to change their name in Canada because they refused to pay this asshole band an exorbitant amount of money to buy their name. Finally, they bought the name right before their stop in T.O. during the Razorblade Suitcase tour. I still have the ticket with Bush X on it. Even though they announced they were finally, officially, BUSH during that show. It was a nice moment. We cheered for them. These are shots from the second stop in T.O. of the Razorblade Suitcase tour. See, the ticket just says BUSH.
