Saw them in Boston last night. Not like anything I've seen before. Kind of a cross of Capt. Beefheart, The Pixies with a sprinkling of the Residents.

Pere Ubu are amazing. In a just world they'd be millionaires.

 

I hung out and met most of the band after. Nicest people you can imagine. Dave Thomas is an interesting dude. He comes off like a manic grumpy grampa, swinging from laughing to grumbling in seconds. Got a book and the new CD autographed. Thomas did not look real healthy. He sat all show, but his voice was spot on.

 

Millionaires they are not. They were travelling by van, not tour bus.

I met David Thomas after a Rocket From The Tombs gig a few years back (thats his other, very very awesome band). Nice as a could be. He poured me a shot out of a bottle of whiskey he had in a metal briefcase. Think that was 2003 and he looked crazy unhealthy then.

Last night, saw Jake Bugg at DC's 9:30PM Club. An amazing talent, a great show and his new songs are excellent. If it wasn't for his youthful appearance it'd be hard to believe his only 19.
