What are they like live then?

New album's pretty good if you get a chance to pick it up.


Enjoyed the live set, some pleasant instrument-swapping in the latter 1/3 of the show ... the lady (don't know any band members names, sorry!) is very cool on bass when she gets out from behind her piano. The songs are long and also danceable without being "jammy" in the perjorative sense. Less intense than, say, Comets On Fire, but maybe more like those Elevators tracks (sans jug) where Roky doesn't sing. (Or Airplane without Gracie Slick / Big Brother without Janis. Or Chris Robinson Brotherhood without Chris Robinson. Y'know ... good SF rocknroll with zero resemblance to the Dead, not that I would mind.)

They rocked. I dug it. Wouldn't mind stronger songs, but the vibe is enough to keep me.
