I caught the Mezzanine Owls’ Monday night Spaceland residency show yesterday. As usual, I walked away impressed. I’ve already written about them once, or twice, or thrice this year, so I’ll keep this brief. Essentially, they’re one of those bands that gets better every time I see them and have earned the right to be considered one of the best local bands in LA. Mouse from Classical Geek Theate devoted more words to the show than I could ever hope to. He also has pictures. You should see them. I also caught The Henry Clay People’s set too. They do the meat and potatoes guitar rock thing but they do it damn well and are really fun to watch live. I wish I had their enthusiasm and joie de vivre. Maybe I should just start doing meth or something.*
* Oh what, I can’t do meth humor? Lighten up people. What’s next, you’re gonna’ tell me not to do dead baby jokes?
