“Maybe it was the fact that live music is only just starting to come back after COVID, or maybe it was the alcohol talking, but I can think of few other times in my life that I have been this electrified by a performance. It was unreal. UNREAL. As soon as the band came out and locked-in, I was on the edge of my seat. The rhythm section held it DOWN. The bass player had some of the tastiest licks I’ve heard. And the girl on drums KILLED it up there, completely taking control of the band’s dynamics.”
“When we parked, we walked 2 solid blocks where literally every single building front was boarded up. Until finally we found F Jones. It was basically a little blue cube with a door. It all felt a bit sketchy, but we paid the $10 cover and went in.”
