And Then There Were Two

Man, was this a great show. There was a vibrant band, there was a great opener, there was a full bar, there were 16 year olds. It had all the elements of a great show. I've been a big fan of We are Scientists and finally had the chance to see them live. I'm so glad I finally got to do it! I was a bit worried since some fans were a bit miffed that the 3 man show is now a duo (Sorry to drummer, Michael Tapper who has since left the band.) Keith Murray and Chris Cain are thoroughly entertaining and I have to say, I enjoy the new album. Their "vaguely danceable" music had me at hello. I had the good fortune of meeting Keith Murray and bullying him into signing my cd for me. Thank you! If you're looking for a distraction from work, go and check out their videos. Aside from the great performance, I met another cool band, Apache Beat. This is an interesting collaboration. There's moody vocals (think Siouxsie and the Banshees or Concrete Blonde) and there's mad percussion. It works.
