Tagged along with Paul, Ivan and Steve to the newly re-opened Thekla last Sunday night. It's been done up a bit and i think it's a pretty good venue.
We saw Kelly Stoltz who i liked - good tunes and a tight little band, Blitzen Trapper - sort of spikey art rockers very tight performance - passed the quality test and headliners Two Gallants - a monotonous, miserable drum/guitar duo who left me cold. The audio equivalent of getting all your teeth pulled out they had one gloomy song which they repeated ad nauseum until they decided to make it worse by slowing it down for the encore - dreadful.
If they were in reverse order it wouldn't have been a bad night, still gave me an excuse for a good moan.
