[Denmark] The band
I’d chosen this venue for. They were roaming around before their set all rocker
glamorous. Well, in particular, there was a fellow in striped tight pants, a
midriff shirt, and a Blue Van jean jacket … who turned out to not be in the
band… just a roadie or something. Embarrassing for him… but effective
advertising for the band. The band was much more low-key 70s stoner looking –
tank tops, lanky, shaggy hair – a look I enjoy very much. They were straightforward
garage punk with lots of 60s flavor. They had some Led-Zeppelin-esque moments. I’m
a huge sucker for the genre but they were so perfect I just couldn’t get
excited. Rockboy’s favorite band of his one day at SXSW. Upon listening to
their recorded stuff, I think the band was a lot more poppy than I realized
during the live set –may have seemed harder because they were such a relief of
competence after the first two more painful opening bands.
