Two if by Sea Roll Call

[kurosawa-b/w]

Saturday night at DC9!

I'm saving up for Two If By Sea December 18th with Big In Japan and Co-Pilot at the Ottobar!
 
 They were awesome opening for WSC two weeks ago.
 
 Speaking of which, did I really see WSC across the bar last night as the house band on Carson Daly? What gives?

I heard they were also on one of the late night shows on Tuesday eve...  
 
 as for Two if By Sea, my reaction was "meh."  They sounded a lot like Interpol, but that's what you've got Interpol for (and of course they're pretty derivative too).   I'm kinda over bands that sound like other bands.

well, last night I decided to go to this show after all, and I was confronted with a band that I'd never heard of but was amazingly good... here's a decent review of them:

 didn't catch Two if By Sea, I was still feeling ragged from Saccharine (curses!) and decided to hit the sack early.  Nice to see you Kurosawa.

Isn't Big in Japan "Seth Cohen's band"?

Good to see you too, Doomie. It was a fun night. A bunch of friends actually turned up and the bands were in fine form. Well, The Good North and Two if by Sea, that is. I wasn't crazy about The Hurt.

[Herr Professor Doktor Doom]

Doh... I'm such an idiot... I thought the Hurt were Metropolitan because someone told me that's who was playing... I was wondering why their lineup had changed... hahahahaha

To Two If By Sea's defense/credit, when they formed/started, there was no sign of Interpol or any of those bands. But, if you really know Interpol & TIBS, there differences are clear-cut. I think TIBS are much more fun/exciting than Interpol

yeah, I should give them another chance, I was just feeling crotchety that day.  You get like that sometimes when you're a Doom-Doctor.
