Went to the ENON show Friday at Kings. Not bad, the sound was
pretty fucked, and they were a bit lower energy than I expected,
but not bad.
Went back on Sat to see Renelvis/Baamph/Last of the Juanitas.
Hmmm, math rock! Didnt really want to go by myself, but
what the heck.
The crowd seemed to enjoy Renelvis quite a bit, and him
playing “Hounddog” and “Jailhouse Rock” with Baamph
was an entertaining extra bit.
Baamph was fast, heavy, and weird as usually. Good show.
Last of the Juanitas was pretty good too, though I think
Baamph put on a better show over all.
Seems to be the weekend for bands with female bass
players. ENON/Baamph/Last Of the Juanitas all featured
female bass players.
And for more heavy math rock fun, The Fucking Champs
and Rye Coalition are playing Thursday.
And to top off a show heavy week, probably gonna
try to head to Winston-Salem Friday to see a
local showcase
Featuring Japan Air, Tommy Gun,
and The Finks among others. Three friends bands on the same bill, should be fun.
On the same note, it looks like Japan Air finally have a
Raleigh show, at
Humble Pie on Sat, June 22. Yay!
And in between shows, wandered around Raleigh attempting
to find thrift stores. A possible new addiction.
