Man that was a fun show, Seattle-based Visqueen headlined at the Tractor Tavern tonight, a sold out show that really deserved it.
Dale, Jodi and I showed up around 10pm just as they posted that it was sold out, Dale had anticipated this so we all had pre-ordered our tickets.
The band just before them, Department of Energy, started playing a little bit after we got there and met up with some friends. They were a mixed bag for me, I'm not a fan of their lead singer's... singing, and their keyboards were overpowering and I think took away from the sound. On the other hand their basic songs were very interesting and have a ton of potential.
Visqueen just rocked the house, I had listened to their music a bit on MySpace when Dale invited me to go but seeing them live was a whole different ballgame. I instantly fell in love with their lead singer and their new bass player is just plain adorable. I think there were also other band members, but I can't say for sure.
