jay reatard was awesome. fun times always....only played one new song, nothings going to save me, so i guess we'll have to wait for the rest of the LP til it comes out in august.

lover! opened. good garage punk. and the smith westerns started things off. nuggets era garage mixed with a bit of glam and pop punk. watch out for these guys in the future. they ought to be the nest big thing. buy their LP on hozac records now, it just came out.......
