No, I'm choosing to go vegetarian for the occasion.
Because thats how we do in the Garden State.

Fun Show!
Maxwell's is such a cool little joint.
Grand Duchy was better than expected. Charles is awesome. No, really, he rules! Violet leads the band though. What can I say they have great chemistry.
The opening band, The Unkindness Of Ravens were very good. Bought their album.
The second band (can't remember their name) were definitely oddballs.
Cheers B

Setlist:

Come on Over to My House
A Strange Day
Ma Carrefour
Lovesick
Threshold Apprehension
Seeing Stars
Ermisinde
Long Song
Fort Wayne
Break the Angels
Black Suit
Volcano

Great to meet a few forumers. Second band was Bunnies (formerly the Bennies). The GD set was a lot of fun with a few dick jokes thrown in for good measure. The band, as could be expected, were a treat both on and off stage.

Sounds good; hope to see them in Europe sometime! Good idea to put 'Threshold Apprehension' in the set too... especially now there's synth to back it up!

Yes, Europe awaits. I think the setlist has room for one more: Virginia Reel.

Even other Bluefinger songs that Violet sings on would be great, but still, that's a great set!

I thought the show was great. Charles always impresses but I wasn't sure how Violet would do live. Thankfully, I was blown away. She sounded great & her stage banter was very entertaining. "Threshold Apprehension" was a nice surprise since I was only expecting to hear Grand Duchy songs.

The Bunnies... ummm... yeah. I love unmelodic crazy art rock but that was a bit much for me, plus they were way too loud. I liked the first band though. The guitarist had a real unique style, I couldn't take my eyes off his fretboard. And the drummer was really working the set... really solid stuff.

Maxwell's is great. I usually catch shows in Philly so I hadn't been there in years. Sorry I didn't meet any of you but hopefully next time.
