The Poojer Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 i saw them last night at World Cafe Live in Philly and they electrified the place with a kick ass rockin', bluesy 2 hour set. Their new CD is VERY bluesy and plays well live. They also played all their older stuff as well. The lead singer epitomizes the phrase 'dance like no one is watching'. If you get a chance go see them, I think you will be impressed(if you like that kind of music) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jauronimo Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 The price is right, a free show. Free isn't enough. They're going to have to sweeten the pot if they expect me to step outside and walk across the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buftex Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I won't be there (sorry fellas!), but would recommend the English Beat and Chuck Prophet off that list, along with the afirementioed Smithereens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
