Coco Rosie
Do I like Coco Rosie?
Well, I like Cocoa Pebbles and the name Rosie has the perfect amount of letters. I guess that means Coco Rosie is a-okay with me. On the other hand, I wish I was writing in a highschool yearbook. Does everything relate to coffee?
I have no idea what's going on right now.
Good Friday

I think I can answer that question.. Do I like Coco Rosie? Hell no. I saw Coco Rosie for the first time and the last time Jan 17th at the Riv in Chicago. I should've hung out in the stench of the soggy bathroom talking to the bathroom attendant just to avoid hearing what they called music.
Bright Eyes - you might want to actually listen to who you have opening for you before you sign em up next time.
Cocoa Rosie is not for the mainstream musically-minded. Totally unique! Sort of a Beth Owens of Portishead musical style and a Billy Holiday on an acid trip voice. The keyboardist had one of the most amazing saprano opera voices I've ever heard and they showcased bizarre childlike paintings of strange monsters and animals. I loved their show in Chicago. I'd never heard of them, but if you want to experience something completely unique, check them out!
to the person that said somthing about "bright eyes better check out whos opening for them" is a fucking douche. yea it sucks that they arnt super popular and trendy to like. maybe when every emo indie kid in the world jumps on to the bandwagon they might be cool to like.
I was at the chicago show, and it is too bad that many of the people who go to bright eyes shows don't have a broad enough appreciation of music to understand how talented Coco Rosie is... while they really don't fit that sort of venue, there is something about their musical style.
I saw Coco Rosie for the first time this weekend, also with the Bright Eyes tour. I was completely amazed by their fantastic performance, and so was the most part of the audience. Everyone were deadly silent as they played, too impressed to say anything. And the first comment I heard was the one of 2 kids who were talking about the too expensive tickets before the show started stating: Even if the show would end there, the 30$ would have been worth it...just for that.
I saw coco Rosie on wednesday nite at Town Hall. Wow. It was such a moving performance. They performed in the dark and you could faintly see them. The only performer you could see was a rapper in an Indian headress that effectivley added percussion. The art slide presentation only added to the theatrics of the evening. I was mezmorized! Hearing them live at a seated venue made it even more special. The juxtoposition of the beautiful opera voice along with the gutteral sounding voice was fantastic. The cd is great but not as potent as hearing them live.
I'm sorry but have you ever heard coco rosie they are brilliant. Mybe your idea of good music is so narrow-minded that you believe that the only good music is mainstream because the most people listen to it.
Oh they clearly rule. I can see it not having mass-appeal, but meh, who cares.
