Teenage Fanclub are exhibit A to prove that major labels once signed bands based on talent and not the ability to put on eyeliner... Much like The Soft Boys, Gang of Four, Pixies, etc, four ordinary joes walk on stage with a couple amps and guitars and just played great songs. A tad lowkey at times but they ripped it when needed.
Oh and to all those people who complain DC audiences are lame should have been at this one. From my vantage point most of the floor was either swaying or bopping along to the music, through the show..
