Good morning! Went to a 100% local band show last night and saw some great new bands. The show was opened by Distances http://www.facebook.com/distancesband they call themselves Atmospheric Metal/Experimental Rock and  I agree, their music was an amalgamation of of heavy music, edgy vocals, and etheral subject matter. All in all a great set from this young band. Mother Death Queen was next to take the stage. An all girl band that was a throwback to some of the Riot Grrrl bands of the past. Trading off of vocals between bands members, with some catchy playing made for a good set from MDQ check them out at:http://www.facebook.com/pages/Mother-Death-Queen/259980427374658 Throughout the night people were running around the club sporting Beard stickers in various places on their persons. It was time to see what the hype about the band Beard was all about. The band brought catchy hooks, great energy, and awesome crowd response. They have a soon to be released CD, I cannot wait to hear it. The evening was closed out with the ever entertaining The Ground Beneath. http://www.facebook.com/thegroundbeneath if you like Heavy Riffs, and a frontman that will entertain TGB is your band.
