If you haven't heard, takeaway shows are all the rave. And rave's are what we're all about. Basically the idea is, you take a great band/artist/musician/rockstar and you put him/her/it somewhere random and ask for musical perfection. It works out very nicely sometimes. It's kind of like mixing flash mobs with talent. The best part is seeing the random passer by's wondering who these weirdo's singing in the middle of a busy street singing and player there flutes and maracas. Honestly its a flawless way to see how really talented these bands are. Some of the best takeaway shows I've seen has been put on by a bunch of french dudes at a website called http://www.blogotheque.net/ . I don't know what they've done to the website recently, but now its total crap (maybe its a french form of web building, it might be super trendy but I'm not up to date of foreign fashions). I can't really seem to get around the website very easily and get lost in bad google chrome translating. But thats not the point. The idea is brilliant. I recommend looking them up on youtube, its much easier to find the best ones. If you like good music, good music videos, and good music live takeaway shows are a must. Some of them take awhile to get started, but be patient, you will be peeing your pants soon.
