Saw 'em tonight open for Her Space Holiday and they fuckin' blew the socks off the audience! Loud, energetic, contagious, danceable goodness the entire time they were onstage. Twelve songs squeezed into 45 minutes -- not bad for an opening band. Tonight was The Troubadour, tomorrow The Roxy and Tuesday night at Cinespace. G'head, check 'em out. I bet you'll find yourself dancing too.

Personal note to Dalen -- dude, too bad you don't fuckin' live near here. I know they were your flavour of the month for quite some time -- you would've had a great time!

PS -- The guys are fuckin' nice to boot. If I didn't have to work tomorrow, I'd be out with them somewhere right about now getting shitfaced with the lads.

such a good band, and from the live stuff i've got, they seem to kick it up 10 notches!

awesome to hear you had a blast T. and yeah, sooner or later i'll move somewhere that have proper live shows every week.

Btw, you know you've not made it in the US when you have to sleep in sleeping bags on the floor of Dim Mak Records. The band didn't seem to care, they were just excited to be in the States and are having a grand time.

haha, wow! well, they're probably well drunk by the time they hit the sack, so....

oh, and yeah, no time for The Rakes....America's too busy sucking off The Bravery right now

Egads...the only good thing about The Bravery's current tour is that Maximo Park is opening for them.

fuck yeah, glad you enjoyed their show... all i could think about on thurs seeing them at the fader party was "damn, dalen would love this" since he's the one who introduced me to this band. they are awesome fellas- also saw them dj on wed night. they fuckin rocked the HELL out of everyone on thurs at the fader party.

how was her space holiday? thought that was an odd combo...

whoa? they dj'd as well? jeeeeeezus. you 2 are killin' me.

what type of stuff did they play Dri?

they played all your typical indie tracks you'd hear at a club... i only remember clap your hands say yeah "over and over again" as their opening song... but i was way drunk and we were dancing the whole time.

i have some pretty awesome pictures of them. will post when i get back into town.

Definitely a band that lends itself to a better live sound. Dug the tracks D sent me a while back, but they didn't stick. Seeing them live first may have been a different story.

Glad you had fun, Tania.

I love lamp.
