Last night The Strange Boys played the Knitting Factory with opening act Natural Child. The show was put on by Scion, they're putting on a string of events in NYC and Austin. According to the website, the company is also putting out EP's. It's weird but that's what I gathered from looking over the website. Natural Child seemed to have the crowd mildly entertained. I didn't actually see them play, I watched it through the window connecting the bar to the venue. The setup at the Knit Factory is convenient that way, but it's bad for bands. Strange Boys was great and you should definitely check out their shit. Their R&B and Soul tracks were tight and the frontman's impressive performance was seemingly effortless. When I visit the Knit, I'm sure to have a few 5 dollar beer+shots. I'm not training for a marathon so fuck it. Afterwards, we headed to Savalas nearby on Bedford Ave. The place was a ghost town, but the bartender was cool and cut us two beer+shots for 8 bucks. The bar was empty, but the DJ was still spinning. No iTunes shuffle bullshit for that bad mamajama. He was like the band that kept playing as the Titanic was going down.
Halloween is my one true love, and it has arrived my friends. This year, I'm a 40 oz. of Olde English malt liquor. I'll be popping around town this weekend, getting properly wastey-faced and soaking in all that sweet Halloween goodness. Fuck Christmas and fuck Thanksgiving and the 4th of July. Nothing beats Halloween.
