These days, it’s rare to see Modest Mouse in a venue the size of The Music Hall Of Williamsburg in Brooklyn. That being said, It’s not very shocking that they were able to sell out the club in a few minutes when they announced a very last minute (and very late) “secret show” yesterday.
Earlier in the night, the band opened for R.E.M at Madison Square Garden, so a projected 1:30 A.M. start time was generous at best. Not surprisingly, the band went on about an hour later. The wait was worth it though because this was the best I’ve ever seen them play.
Favorites like “Paper Thin Walls,” “Dance Hall,” “Wild Pack Of Family Dogs,” and “Dramamine” were standouts amongst a mostly obsecure list of songs. No “Float On” or “Ocean Breaths Salty.” Hell, I was shocked they played “Dashboard” honestly. The way they were hammering away, it seemed like the MSG show was a warm up.
I’m fucking exhausted now since the show ended at 4 A.M. and I got home when the sun was coming up, but hell, like I said before, it was well worth it.

Ya gotta give it to our friends in The Measure [SA], they are troopers. The band headlined a show last night at the Lost and Found Bar in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, where there was no power and most importantly, no delicious hot dogs. Bummer! But that didn’t stop them from putting on an energetic and fun show. They played a few new songs too and they all sounded freakin’ fantastic. Check out more pictures of the band, along with some of Young Hearts and Landmines after the jump as well.
The last Dear Tonight show has come and gone, and a phenomenal hardcore band is no more. Dear Tonight, formed in 2001, broke up this past Saturday after an incredible show at Brooklyn’s Lost & Found bar, surrounded by friends, fans, and great bands. Sets by Attica Attica, In First Person, LNWF favorites The New Dress, and Scream Hello led up to shit totally blowing up when DT took the floor in their usual cacophony of hardcore deliciousness. I’m sad that DT decided to break up but it was a privilege to have known this band, been around when they were, and to have been there that night.
