i had an absolute blast last night.  trouble funk were great, took some of the crowd a little while to warm up to them but eventually had the whole place dancing and getting in to the call-n-responses.  GB did as GB does: turned the club into a polka mosh pit.  i definitely enjoyed this performance more than the last time i saw them.  i spent the main set on the rail upstairs but got in to the fray for the encore - good (and sweaty) times.
thanks to the best club in DC for kicking off the new year right.  the staph were awesome as always.  
(a 1 AM ben's half-smoke ain't a bad way to start the year, either 

)
