 Stick to DMB or some other Frat house hype band than that doesn't require much work in the cerebral cortex.
 
 They are very good and put on a good show, short of the one technical glitch.
 
 Mankie would have loved the rocking violin player. He and Sam (keyboards/guitar/singer) were obviously the core of the band and very in-sync with each other.
 
 Inouk were pretty much as I had expected. Some good songs and some mediocre ones. Good opener for HOTS but not strong enough to bring me out on their own strength.
 
 Kosmo, thanks for the great songs! HOTS liked your selection too. Set list, please?

I was less than impressed with Inouk. They started off really bad, IMHO, but got better towards the end of the set. Maybe I just couldn't get past the 80s hair.
 
 HOTS was REALLY good! I was pissed there wasn't any merch. I would like to have gotten their CD last night. I definitely see the Mogwai comparisons, but much better and accessible than Mogwai. Definitely recommend people see these guys the next time they come through.
 
 That was Kosmo in the VOTE shirt? I saw you on the floor during one of the sets. Then again, I think there were so few people that I could describe just about everyone at the show! I don't think I've ever seen such a sparse crowd at the club.

HOTS wasn't bad. I would definetly compare them with Mogwai and Explosions in the Sky. Though some of their songs are very very different than those two bands. Missed Inouk, though I did kinda want to see them. It was by far the smallest crowd I've ever seen at hte Club, and the band even commneted on how big the venue was. Obviously they have been playing much smaller places i nthe states, as well they should have. Clovette liked them, whicc is a pretty good stamp of apporval. I'd see them again, especially after i was more familiar with their album.

I think we may have passed each other on way to and from the backbar at one point, would have stopped but had other things on my mind at the time.

before i bumped into you, i had spotted you walking around because of your shirt (cool shirt)...just didn't make the connection that it was you. the catherine wheel was a nice touch.
 
 hmm, show was decent..that one track with the b&w animated video of the train wreck and the guy trudging around with a briefcase was excellent though.

great show, I think ... I was pretty fucking hammered ... and I remember everything pretty much up to Black Dollar Bills, the whole night went downhill from there ...
 
 if you saw some guy stumbling around in a shins t-shirt, that was me... I hope I didn't puke on anyone ...
