Tonight I got the pleasure of being added to a guest list spot for The Octopus Project at Bottom of the Hill, and yet this is a band I’ve probably only listened to for more than two seconds for the first time yesterday. Well maybe I listened to them before yesterday, but for some reason they didn’t stick with me. At any rate, I’m pretty eager to get to the show tonight to catch out their version of indietronica (their words). The stuff I’m hearing on their MySpace page is hot and I’m really digging the song which I want to be the slogan for every concert I leave from now on — music is happiness.
This band also gets my vote for cutest art ever. Diagonals, Sassy!!! and The Hot Toddies open. See you in the beer line.
