Boston Rock Photos And Stuff
Here’s Matthew Connor crooning away upstairs at The Middle East on “Limestone And Yew” from his album Farewell Motel. This was part of his set opening Doom Lover’s Vaudevillian Spectacular.
You can view some photos from this show right here.
Doom Lover’s Vaudevillian Spectacular at The Middle East opened with the dark crooning of Matthew Connor.
Oh, hello. I didn’t see you there. Have a look around. Can I show you a few photos of a band I really like? They’re called Doom Lover. They make sounds with their voices and instruments that make me happy. What more could I ask for?
I had only seen The Shills a couple of times before seeing them open for Spacehog. My band squared off against them in the 2008 Rock ‘N’ Roll Rumble prelims. Neither of us advanced. I saw them again a couple of years later at a Rock n Romp event. The kids and I enjoyed them. It had been 3 years since our paths last crossed. You’ll forgive me if I wasn’t prepared for what I saw at Great Scott. These guys are playing in a whole new league now. The Shills are impressive.
Trabants opened with Link Wray’s “Rumble” and closed with “Wipeout”. You can probably guess what their originals sound like. These guys have the sound nailed.
