TVOTR was awesome. Great time. The Vogue was cool as hell, I thought the venue was going to be in downtown Indy, but actually it was only a couple blocks down from Butler University I think. Real nonchalant looking place, like an old movie theatre with a big ass marque out front. Smallish place to.

As a follow up, the Pete Yorn show was pretty good. I was surprised to see that it was completely sold out. i didn't realize that he was that popular. I had seen him 3 or 4 other times and didn't have any trouble being right next to the stage.

The cool part to me was that the band Minibar was the opening act. I didn't realize that they were on tour with Pete. It was also cool that they played their song "So Long Soho", which was on their debut album.

After Minibar, there was a middle act called Moses Mayfield and they were totally awful. It boggled my mind that they would somehow trump Minibar and I was working myself into a frenzy that Pete had somehow lost his mind by not only signing these guys to play with him, but to play after Minibar. Then later when Pete came on stage, Minibar accompanied him as his band along with Joe Kennedy (his usual guitarist). If you are interested and I guess even if you are not, here was the setlist.

* Life on a Chain
* For Us
* Closet
* Long Way Down
* The Man
* Splendid Isolation (Warren Zevon)
* Undercover
* Ice Age
* Strange Condition
* Burrito
* Dead Flowers (The Rolling Stones)
* Murray
* How Do You Go On
* For Nancy

Encore:
* Policies
* Just Another
* Ever Fallen in Love (The Buzzcocks)
* Crystal Village
* There is a Light That Never Goes Out (The Smiths)

Got shut out of the of Montreal show. Boo! I honestly didn't believe that many people had heard of them, even though they do have that one song from the Sunlandic Twins album in an Outback commericial, even though the commericial just changes the lyrics but keeps the same beat. Anywhoos, hopefully I'll be able to check out Yo la Tengo in a few weeks. I doubt I'm gonna cough up $60 to see Sufjan next week.

Just saw Breaking Benjamin come to Toledo this past Saturday. WOW...what an amazing live act. 3 local bands started off, with BB opening band Leo kicking off the real show. Just an amazing concert in a club/bar setting!

I finally made it to a show.... woo hooo.

The Tossers - Murder by Death - The Reverend Horton Heat
3.28.07 Otto's. DeKalb, IL

The Tossers were intersting. The singer was wasted. He kept reverting to bad Tony Montana imitations between songs and once graced the front rows with a close up of a snot rocket. His voice was rougher than what you hear of the records. I've never seen them live before to compare what it usually sounds like on stage. Besides, the long breaks between songs, the bad imitations and the short set, it was still pretty good. The music was solid and had people dancing. The crowd tried to call them back for an encore. Rumor was that they were supposed to go on second and play a longer set, but they got bumped to the front because of his drunkeness. I would love to see them as a headliner sometime.

Murder by Death was murder by suckiness. I did not like these guys one bit. I've never heard these guys, but I've seen their name attatched to a few things. So, I was hoping to be happily suprised. I wasn't. They were brutal. The one redeeming quality was that their singer looked like a muppet. He had floppy hair and his head tilted back every time he opened his mouth to sing (watch the Muppets again and note how they talk). Anyway, two songs in and we went to the basement bar to watch the crazy guy hosting karoke. Much more entertaining.

The Reverend Horton Heat were incredible. I've been wanting to see them since I first heard them about 12 years ago. They definately lived up to expectations. They're a solid live act. Great music, tight, high energy and lots of dancing. The Reverend's guitar playing is just fantastic. I'm amazed that he can sing and play some of the more difficult stuff at the same time. The new drummer looks like Bruce Jenner. They took some requests and played a few older tunes. They did great covers of "Get Rythym" and "Folsom Prison Blues" by Johnny Cash, as well as "Time is Tight" by Booker T. & the MG's.

HA, the lead singer from the Tossers was DESTROYED. im shocked he could even play. the rest of the band looked a little ticked off too. but then again, they are south side irish, so im sure its nothing new. their shows are notorious for being the largest AA meetings in the US. but i've always dug them, and they still managed to put on a good set.

murder by death? i gladly would have taken it.

but the reverend saved my soul. never seen them before, but awesome energy (especially considering they've been at it for over 20 years). the covers were a lot of fun. for those not familiar with them:

Hell yeah. Nice work. I couldn't see too much guitar action from my vantage point.

Thanks for reminding me. Not many shows that I want to see make it to the Cincy area like Chitown. I just bought tickets to see Yo La Tengo. The Hold Steady is playing on May 14, and then Animal Collective is playing the next day. Sweetness.

Not to rub it in, but I was looking through a local entertainment magazine last night and was stunned by the amount of good shows coming in the next two months. If I get a chance later, I'll post some of them. Maybe a road trip is in order.

Unfortunately for me. I'll probably hit zero of them. When I was younger, I didn't have the money to go to many shows. Now, I have responsibilities and bills. *Sigh* Oh well.

Cincinnati usually gets the shaft in Ohio. Usually bands will skip Cincy for Columbus or Cleveland. Hell, even the best venue in town is across the Ohio River in No. Kentucky. But the good thing about Cincinnati, is that it's only an 1 hr - an hour and a half from Louisville, Lexington, Columbus, and Indianapolis. Another good thing about not many bands coming to Cincy, is that when they do, for me, it's a big deal. I imagine if I lived in a hipper town, where bands flock to, missing a show wouldn't be that big a deal, because another band's in town next week, or tomorrow. Basically, I don't take it for granted.

Sweet ass. Just bought tix to see Sufjan. He's playing the last day of a three day festival here in Cincy, and originally you could only buy a pass for the entire three days, but now you can buy individual day ticks.
