[from San Antonio, TX] a fine boss-girl of
a lead singer in her red dress with zig-zagging fringes and scattered arm
tattoos – in addition to her solid version of low-toned female rockabilly
vocalizing, she handled DJ responsibilities in between sets – the band was
completed by an upright bass guitarist, drummer, and lead guitarist – some
covers, old country, rockabilly, swing; and then a song where the vocalist left
and the musicianship was turned up and it was very exciting psychosurf; and
then our personal finale was a song that started like the Flipper song with “HA
HA HA HA HO HO HO…” lyrics, was dedicated as “The Laughing Song” to the upright
guitarist’s “partner,” and has been determined by the wonderous Google to be a The
Residents song of the same name that is described as sounding like The Flipper
song – it must be noted that the venue was satisfyingly swanky rock club and
the environment on their ‘Swing Night’ was earnest, clean dance devotion with a
crowd of youngsters, hipsters, oldsters alike
