Better:

Sitting at home, if struck my fingers and waiting for the Series the world begin.

 
Considering that was the first night of the atmosphere, in Granada Theater last night was surprising.

  Invite only 250 people some turned out to see "smart power pop trio Thermals of spring, in New York clinking eat guitar Atlanta Coathangers as primary, but the night was filled with optimism options.

I felt like Friday, really.

Credit Thermals. on stage was elegant in its simplicity and spare, most Harris, foster tetrology Kathy Westin glass cranked out a string of songs with minimal delay, interpretation, placing the emphasis, instead, their three-chord punk songs, strong cracking wise, rarely watch every three minutes..

Kicking things with "the future of here" in the body, blood, a computer, the band set the stage for its off well.

Harris Frontman long, thin may punk childlike, but he smacks, too, be smart glow.He plays with the stiffness of the conviction, he sang the words high you expect of the area just north of Portland, Oregon with. with glass laying down firm basis very rhythmical Harris work from Thermals are able to make a poster, what can be seen going back at least interesting thudding from bands.

And interested audience very soon in front of Harris was enthusiastic, pogoing and waving frantically tees tables Mercury but further back, while clearly enjoyed the music, the audience was dull, a little more.

Perhaps too: after the band was not just a time of songs, ended things with "now we can see," skipping encore performance, although the conversation with enthusiastic audience appreciative.

Earlier balila, Coathhangers girl band, designed to deliver fun punchy, kicked things with a group of energetic enough. with most of the audience is still not on the scene, the girls have worked hard to amp up the energy level with moderate success and set the same beautiful ... for the first second, eat guitars, band of four-piece which garnered more than a little buzz with their debut album and why do the last year. Frontman Joesph D ' Agostino led the band to his way of songs of Sonic squall, with serene hopelessly lost in the mix sound terrible.

Visitors notebook
Personal Bias: I really admire the art of delivering a message to Bashir cracking that lasts about three minutes, and the Thermals do this better than almost any band goes. watching them, I was reminded of an intelligent and equal-the Buzzcocks.

By the way:Thermals plays New Orleans on Friday, Austin Saturday. is my guess their dismissal Encore was a bitter, but instead, as some members of the audience, they were just a little spent on Sunday evening.
