HereForTheBands is going on hiatus
(My camera broke, dammit)
"In case you're wondering what happened, here's the full story. I picked up a Canon EOS 7D in December through the Canon Loyalty Program (CLP). You buy a refurbished camera for 20% off retail and send them in an old/broken Canon camera to get another 20% off. Not a bad deal! The 7D replaced the EOS Rebel T1i I was using for most of last year."
Sweet Soubrette at Bowery Poetry Club
In the past they have been billed as "Sweet Soubrette and the Regrets". In this case it was Sweet Soubrette, the Regrets, the orchestra, the backup singers, the drummer's tag team partner, and the lead singer's brother (who was part of the evening's entertainment if not actually performing). Fortunately the stage at the Bowery Poetry Club is rated to support small armies like The Polyphonic Spree.
Hammered Satin at Bowery Electric
At first glance I thought that the lead singer of Hammered Satin looked like Iggy Pop. Upon examining the photos I now think he looks more like Rod Stewart. His friends call himself Roddy Pop (and he has not forgiven them). Anyhoo, if you want to see a band which knows how to party like it's 1973, here ya' go.
