The Field Effect @ Radio 10.13.2012

By the time The Field Effect took the stage at Radio for the club’s big anniversary show, the wheels had already come off the bus. Back-to-back sets by Mellow Bravo and OldJack had seen to that.* The Field Effect took the if-you-can’t-beat-’em-join-’em mentality and delivered a rousing set that kept the crowd wrapped up in the revelry.

* Not to mention the nine acts that played before them…

Mellow Bravo @ Radio 10.13.2012

Mellow Bravo had the crowd in the palm of their hand during Radio’s first anniversary. Most of the time The Hand was tossing you wildly around the room with their soulfully electric hard rock. Every once in a while The Hand took pity on you and gave you a sobering number to take in. The rest of the time The Hand Of Mellow Bravo was passing you a beer.

OldJack @ Radio 10.13.2012

If you’re looking for the tipping point of the One Year Of Radio show where the event went from dignified celebration to rock ‘n’ roll debauchery, look no further than OldJack’s set. There would be plenty of time for things to get really out of hand, but this band of merrymakers certainly played a role in the decline of local civilization. They brought the songs. They brought the show. OldJack helped us find our way to the place we knew we had to go.

Parlour Bells @ Radio 10.13.2012

If I was throwing some kind of anniversary party I’d want to have a classy band in the mix. It’s nice to feel like you’re at some kind of dignified event before the Boucharding begins. Parlour Bells filled that role at Radio’s first anniversary show with a set of their engaging noir-pop.

The Acro-brats @ Radio 10.13.2012

I’ve seen the The Acro-brats at Radio a few times. It’s always fun to watch them pick a fight with their instruments.* Their scrappy set of punk ‘n’ roll for the club’s first anniversary was no exception.

* They usually win.
