Seeing These Electric Lives, The Static Jacks, and Walri Play at Tympanogram’s 1-Year Anniversary Show at the Bug Jar
I headed over to the show at The Bug Jar
(219 Monroe Ave.) so I could get back in practice staying out very late for tomorrow’s show. It turns out, it was the 1-year anniversary of Tympanogram blog and they arranged the show. I chatted with one of the guys doing it and he seemed nice enough — and glad the show was going great.
First up was Walri
who are a nice, harmonius rock band; “psychedelic love rock”, they say. Gerry Szymanski told me to check them out, and despite numerous performances in town, this is the first time I’ve seen them. The Static Jacks
were next and did an entertaining, animated, high-energy punk-rock show. I lent a hand to plug in a lost microphone cable and keep the show going. These Electric Lives
finished off the night with some excellent, thumping, power-pop rock. And, like The Static Jacks, I was there to try and keep the microphones connected, working, and not breaking in half (the last of which without success as the lead singer was so brutally strong and/or the mic stand was already busted.) In all, it was a fantastic show in my book.
