Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
I saw Me First and the Gimme Gimmes at the Axis this past Tuesday. For anyone who doesn't know they are a punk super band comprised from all the biggest punk bands of California. And they only play covers, of pretty much anything you can imagine. It was a ton of fun to see them playing covers of popular songs from pretty much every decade since the 1950's. The only difference is they were real fast and punked out. The most amusing set of covers were ones such as Somewhere over the Rainbow and Tomorrow. Overall it was as punk as a show can be with music chosen. And I got to smash around in a mosh pit for the first time in a while. All I have to say is punks, show-tunes, and cowboys are one of the most hilarious and incorrect mixes ever.
