I came for Edie Sedgwick and left for Bonde do Role. I had never heard Edie Sedgwick before, but was lured in by the drummer who is also in S PRCSS and Antelope. Turns out that, this iteration at least, Edie Sedgwick had Jason Hutto of The Aquarium playing keys. They sounded a little rough, but excellent–very tricky tempos.

I had seen Bonde do Role before, and paid the price with a headache. At least one friend suffered the same fate, despite my warning. You might be too cool for school, but I’m too cool for bands who can’t respect a sound system.
