This is all my opinion folks...
Wednesday:
Strawberry: pretentious and boring - and they have improved...not much talent
here.
Plumtree: incredible!! These girls can really play - and they are hilarious!
good stage presence and I loved the slap-pop bass - YEAH! They
put on a really fun show.
Jale: good, i guess, but i think they should start writing some new
songs...overall - good fun, but same old same old...
Velocity Girl: five out the 6 songs I had heard before going to the show were
really bad, so I was blown away by their live performance.
GREAT stuff! good crowd interaction...
Thursday:
Quahogs: driving material, but run-of-the-mill I thought...not very
interesting
Hardship Post: first time seeing these guys and they are ridiculously good!
inrcedibly tight, excellent material, they really had the
crowd hopping! I can't wait to see them again!!
Lou Barlou: i certainly haven't been carried away by the sebadoh hype, so
I don't know much about this guy. Was this his first solo
gig? I hope so...that would give him an excuse for being as
pathetic as he was. How many chords did he play? 5 maybe?
He forgot the lyrics and stopped twice - it seemed like he
was going to give up, but he just got frustrated and
switched guitars. After a few songs on the four string he tried t
tried to tune it. And after he failed at that he DID give up.
Dropped the guitar and walked off....right on lou! I might
have felt sorry for the guy if he had even acknowledged that
there were people there to see him....jeeeez.
Eric's Trip: been almost a year since i last saw ET...they were really
good then and they are really great now! Excellent show...
contagiously energetic...loads of distortion and feedback
as well as various other noises. I hope this translates well
on the forthcoming cd.
Friday:
didn't go.
Saturday: I am going tonight....
mike
