Ok, I think I've recovered enough to finally have something to say about the weekend in gigs...
PC. You guys were pretty good, regardless of the tech difficulties that you had, according to Denis, and the fill in drummer. Generally entertaining. I really think you need some more up tempo songs in your set though. It kind of ends up lagging a bit. Good turn out for you guys too, which was good to see...
I'd never seen DLC before, and I must say I was pretty impressed. Good tight band & sound, great players, and some pretty good catchy songs. My biggest gripe is the very obvious copycat stylings of the singer. Now, I'm as big a fan of Ian Kenny as anyone, but come on, this guy not only had a similar voice and phrasing style, but he was even pulling out all the Kenny mannerisims. It ended up being quite sickening. The annoying thing is that guy actually had a great fucking voice in his own right. If he developed his own sense of character on stage, he'd blow everyone away...
This wasn't one of the best SL performances I have witnessed. I don't know what it was, as they seemed to have played well, and the crowd reaction was great. I just wasn't really feeling it, I guess. Anyway, still good, I've just seen/heard better from them...
Ended up at the Townie with Ben and Luke for drinks afterward. Good times...even though I was really hurting the next day...
