[from New Jersey] this band was more
interesting –rollicking dance beat (dancepunk) with something of Bright Eyes,
Mountain Goats, Hold Steady – three guys on key board & bass, drum, guitars
– there was also a laptop on stage but I’m not sure what it was doing - the
band’s girlfriends/sisters added a weird dimension to the show, incongruently
twirling rave light gear, and singing along at the stage like a bunch of
groupies – if I were in the band, I’d tell them to cut it out and stop biasing
the audience with their antics – the band were very excited to be playing in CA
for the first time, mentioning it first thing, and ending their first song with
a reminder that that was the first time the song had been played in CA – it was
cute – they told funny stories about their hotel bathroom with a toilet
basically in the shower – I liked their music but his atonal plaintive voice
got a little annoying. (Photo courtesy of
