ha, i was just going to post. they were fucking awesome!
so much better than i thought. small stage for 5 sorta large dudes. but they were all playing all sorts of instruments and their sounds were totally original. the midi player, the bassist playing a drum, to the backing vocals, to the dude clapping into the mic, it was just a different sound from what most other bands have.
very refreshing and the guys were nice. I bought a tambourine there, it broke, they offered to give me another, but what do you expect from a $5 tambourine!!!!
overall, i urge anyone to pick up their disc and catch their next show.
Radio 4 were totally awesome as well. only maybe 50 people were at the show so it was like a crazy dance party for 75 minutes while they played. plenty of room to move around and the bongo/cowbell/crazy dancing guy was even throwing out shakers, tambs and sticks out for us to play along!!!
the Selmenaires were very good too.
overall, it was really the best $12 i have spent in a while (well, plus the $20 for stellas, $5 for tambourine and $15 for a shirt!).
and probably the most fun i have had at a show all year!
