Secret Machines.

Just got home from seeing them in C'ville tonight.  All I can say is do not miss this show friday.  Thats all, nothing more.

From pictures I've seen from their blog on their website, it looks like they finally upgraded their light show from those four flood lights.

Oops (again).  I had tickets and then couldn't get out in time yesterday to make the drive. Was it a sell-out?  Did they do Girl from the North Country?  I'll be front-stage, center tomorrow.

Yes, do not miss this. What a great show.  They have an incredible sound for just a 3 piece, with no bass player.  They totally rocked it, with a bit of the good parts of psychedelia thrown in. They completely blew the place away with Now Here is Nowhere.

Oh yes, BIG light show, done really, really well.  Not too distracting at all (like Kasabian's was).  It might have been a bit too much for a smaller club like Starr Hill, but it will be totally appropriate for 9:30.

thats kind of strange ... i thought they refused to play lalapalooza last summer because they couldn't get their flood lights into the set ... i mean, that's a pretty big deal, refusing to play a high profile touring festival because you can't get your distinctive lighting
 
 and then lalapalooza folded, so i guess they knew what they were doing.
 
 i liked the flood lights too, oh well.

Light show fit great with the music.  I was dead center front and really got into the show.  Its the first time I saw them and I hope it won't be the last.  I'd be at the 930 Friday if not for the fact that I have a show in Raleigh already planned.  The onlything about the evening I could have done without was the 78 in a 65 ticket we got on the way up from Richmond, but then again I wasn't driving!  Getting a drum stick at the end of the show to add to my ever growing collection was icing on the cake.  I have sticks from about 100 different bands now.

Oh cool, I saw you.  I was about 3 or 4 people behind you.  The drummer was so intense all night, then when the show ended, he broke into a big smile and passed out some drum sticks to the audience.  Cool that you got one.

Me, too! Ah, well. As long as they don't have strobe lights, I will be happy with it.
 
 I'm really looking forward to the show. Autolux should be good, too!

I will actually be at the club. Pretty excited to get out. Sonick, you there tomorrow night?

this is one of the better triple bills at the club recently, but i won't be able to make it.
 
 does anybody remember josh garza's old band, comet? i saw them open for low back in 1995. they were pretty similar to low. i thought secret machines were better than interpol in november.

[Chip Chanko]

Is Josh related to David Garza? They both look kinda familiar and both are from Texas...
