August 13th at Chaosome, Lexington, KY
Joe Mangum, Madeline Ava, Pink Houses, Vision of a Dying World, and Andrew Jackson Jihad
Wow. Just the trip was soooo much fun with my boy and three good friends.
Chaosome is an all ages converted house venue in Lexington, KY. No AC, but who needs it when you can just open the doors and windows and jam.
Joe Mangum was just a fun chill opener. He and Madeline Ava have a split and tour together from time to time. Madeline is a hometown favorite and quite earns the title of "cuddlecore". Very positive and I'd suggest you listen.
So I gave up after the very first set on trying to get pictures because I'm short and the flash was being messed up. Still, I'll provide a photo of the sign in which I accidentally got the back of the head of the lead singer of Pink Houses.
I really dug these guys. I'll admit I had never really listened to Defiance, Ohio (members are in Pink Houses) before last night but I'm glad because I had no bias either way about this band. Very different sound than the other acts but awesome. Thumbs up.
The Vision of a Dying World was good. The most traditional kind of sound but beautiful. He sang "Barges" which is a favorite song of mine especially from a camp I used to attend and work.
So it was more than worth the five hour round trip to Kentucky to see Andrew Jackson Jihad. They are one of my favorite bands and the show did not disappoint. I have a bunch of videos on youtube so I'll link them instead of just embedding them.
They played a really good set including some songs off of their recently released album.
But it was just amazing. I REALLY, REALLY recommend checking them out as soon as possible.
Troy took my picture with the guys, which he said was payback for having him meet Thurston Moore.
Wanna listen?
