After an opening set of some great indie pop (including a cover of a Galaxie 500 song by Finnmark! that I didn't realize was a cover at the time), the next set highlighted bands that were at NXNE this summer. I didn't go to any of the paid events of NXNE, but I saw a great trio of bands at The Gap of all places. Not only was it free but they were giving out homemade gourmet Popsicles and of course seeing three great bands in an intimate setting was awesome. I also included a few bands in the set that I didn't see but heard about from the great Indie Underground blog (links below).
Best song I heard since the last show - Go Violets - Teenager - See the video for the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCZ6gSOIbIw
