Saturday Night at the Wizard House

Posted by UNPAID INTERN at 12:18 PM

So the Ironclads were friggin’ fantastic last Saturday as expected, but the surprise of the night came from Little Party and the Bad Business, who lit up the house with two keyboards and a drum machine. They blew the circuit breaker 45 seconds into their first song, and started up again after a few moments of darkness with an equally pandemic set, minus a few lights.

The entire thing brought to mind a quote from the end of Eric Grandy’s article on the Rapture last week:

“Dance music is still very underground in the U.S.,” says Jenner. “Dance music is more punk than punk rock.”

for you soulful punk rockers out there, come on down to wizard house on dec 30 for the whore moans and the fucking eagles! and speaking of punk, i don't think that quote was intended to be taken so literally. kick off yer steel toed boots and boogie once in a while, nipper!
