What a treat for a Sunday night! Lydia continues to kick our ass pretty hard!! This was intense and intensely spectacular. She is an incredible performer. I should also mention that Weasel could be a one-man show in his own right, and it amazes me how a person of his size manages to do what he does on a tiny stage without basically smashing the place and people around him into pieces. Also - they were all super-nice after the gig, everyone got whatever they wanted signed and all that jazz.
Now, I am a total noob for the occasion: I have not seen Retrovirus outfit before - AND I never taped at LPR - oddly enough. In fact, I have not experienced their ‘GA seating’ arrangement before, only standing, and the line on their website about ‘being escorted to your seats’ which implied I may have no choice (!) did not sound too encouraging. HOWEVER - when I arrived at doors-time - basically there were only maybe 6-8 people in queue and I had the entire venue of tables to choose from. I noticed that in addition to the usual 2 hanging stacks of speakers, there was one dead center - so I positioned myself in that very center about 10-12 ft from the stage so that this speaker is facing me. A compromise between being close and getting the sound right (I know I know - I just can’t be in the back..). And I think it worked! I have run into oddest sound issues in smaller venues lately - I think LPR sound guys know what the are doing!
Anyway - long story short - a spectacular performance. Buy the record - URGE TO KILL - and go see them live! I definitely will if I see them are coming to NYC again.
