The Numerators - three young brown dudes by way of Lubbock. they played some fun short trashy no wave punk. then they busted into some party hip hop like early Beastie Boys or Run DMC. shit was bad ass. then back to their clattery punk jams. Reverse X-Rays played their usual energetic set. yeah sure, some of their songs sound the same but i like em nonetheless; still reminds me of the Feelies in some parts. Ethan has his face painted. another member had a ridiculous outfit, lashing his tongue out, pouting between sax bleats or plinks from the guitar. had a great conversation with O about jazz. This Horn of Afrika - three young brown dudes from San Antonio. bass, guitar, effects-laden vocals, electronic drum kit. similar to the local trio Cry Blood Apache but yet not quite the same at all; both share sound & feel of Factory Records bands like Clock DVA or A Certain Ratio as well as such outfits as Art of Noise, Out Hud and Cabaret Voltaire. anyway, the show was killer.
an older man, yellowed from years of rolled tobacco smoking, said we reminded him of the Butthole Surfers. awesome.
