Nemes closed out a rainy Friday night at TT’s…
Eddie Japan have some pretty great songs. “Pushing Years”, “You Will Find Me Dead In My Comfort Zone” and “The Power Of Negative Thinking” are some of the best pop tunes you’ll hear bouncing off of club walls around the city. They played these songs at TT’s last Friday night and made me very happy. Thanks, guys.
Spin-Off! brought their new-wave inspired power pop to TT’s on a rainy Friday night.
Like The Sinbusters and The Sour Doo-Dahs before them, The Devil’s Twins clicked the bass player opt-out check box before stepping on the TT’s stage. That didn’t stop Jeremiah Louf from running his guitar through an 8×10″ bass rig at times…
It’s Tuesday night at TT’s and The Sinbusters just blew the roof off the joint. Awesome.
Here we’ve got The Sour Doo-Dahs bashing out some garage rock goodness at TT’s…
In the grand tradition of Puppet Show and Spinal Tap comes Paper Airplane Fight and Mellow Bravo.*
* Yes, I know this wasn’t technically a Mellow Bravo show, but I didn’t know what else to call it.
This was my first and probably my last time seeing The Resurrectionists. It’s not because I didn’t like their take on modern Americana. You see, the band announced that this was likely their last show (at least for a very, very long time). Dang.
So much good music at Radio this past Friday night! Quality tunes upstairs and down all night long. I shot down to Moe’s Lounge after Reverse’s amazing set just in time to catch Tad & Kate doing their thing as part of Keith Pierce’s new series, Practice. Keith even jumped behind the kit for a couple of tunes. His Mellow Bravo band mate, Seager Tennis, followed suit on bass. This is pretty cool. I want more!
Reverse killed it at Radio. Reverse always kills it, no matter where they play. There were a couple of noteworthy moments I’d like to bring to your attention.
First off, I hope their new record doesn’t take as long to make as Monkey Mind did. I can’t wait that long for “Civilian” to come out. That song was electric on Friday night.
The other thing I wanted to point out was an amazing fill that Mike Piehl pulled off during “Helicopters”. It’s like the guy grew some extra limbs to pull it off. Even the usually unflappable Mike Quinn did a double take. It’s not often a drum fill elicits a cheer from the crowd, but this one certainly did. The audience is listening.
