Andy California is mesmerizing. His set at The Midway last Friday was a real deal rock ‘n’ roll experience.

Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy! Fuzzy!
OK. I think I’ve got that out of my system. Fuzzy is just one of those bands that will make me do stuff like that. I’m a sucker for their perfectly succinct indie rock nuggets. The band played The Middle East Downstairs as part of the Pipeline! at 25 shows and I smiled the whole time.

Thalia Zedek and her band played a primal and emotional set at the TT’s 40th Anniversary celebration.

When I got home from seeing Fuzzy at the Midway, I went straight to Facebook* to rave about the band. Long Fuzziless stretches will do that to you. These are some of the finest indie-rock/power-pop/whatever-you-want-to-call-them tunes you’ll ever hear. Fuzzy are one of my favorites. To see the lineup of Chris Toppin, Hilken Mancini, Winston Braman and David Ryan sharing the stage for the first time in some 15 odd years was a little magical. I wish every day was Chris Toppin’s birthday so this would happen again and again and again.
