Great to learn that other listmembers made it out to see the Lucksmiths. They played here last week and I thought it was probably the best show I have ever seen them do.
Pipas ,unfortunately,had some problems with their laptop and turned in a lackluster show partially due to their reliance on it.
The Icicles opened the show with the tightest set I have ever seen them play. They just returned from their US tour and i must say that all that time together on the road has done them well.
Gary from Ladybugs produced the Icicles full length cd which they launched here in town with a roller skating party back in November.
I understand that the Lucksmiths and Ladybug Transistor temporarily reformed the Lucky Ladybugs for their DC set.
