So the weekend of August 24th, 2013 I had tickets to head to the Riotfest in Toronto, hotel booked, airline booked –the full monty. And then, I decided I didn’t much want to go to Toronto, not even for the replacements. I am too lazy. I’d rather stay home and do nothing.
Except, I won’t be doing anything of the sort as it happens. On Sunday, August 25th, the VMAs come to Brooklyn’s Barclay Center and while I have no idea how this came apart, I wasn’t about to miss it. Plus, Daft Punk, Lady Gaga and Kweezy are gonna be playing –One song each, true but better than a poke in the eye… And you gotta imagine the first couple of Pop Music will be there and… anyway, it will be a good opportunity to be a fanboy (actually, rock nyc is a pretty good opportunity to be a fanboy).
But a better opportunity will be occurring on Saturday August 24th, 2013 when a certain Perez Hilton –certainly one of the best gossips this side of Michael Musto, will be hosting a party at Music hall of Williamsburg. Now given that the entire music world will be in town for the VMAs and given your Hilton’s amazing connects, there is every chance on earth that this should be a night filled to overflowing with pop star sightings of the first order.
Is this all a little pathetic? Do I judge you, you ponce? Why be a fan if you can’t be starstruck?
So,Replacements no, sightings and stalkings of the rich and famous? You betcha.
