Went out to The Elevens in scenic Northampton last night to catch some heavy shit.
Okay, truthfully, closed the kitchen and walked over to the club, as I was already there working all day.
Killer set from Blue Aside. Best I've seen them by far. They have their bassist again, Adam has a new guitar rig and has never sounded better, all three dudes were singing, tight, and they played a nice mixture of material from the debut and new material. They really sounded awesome.
Another band was next. They looked like Guns And Roses when they were in high school. They closed with Sweet Child Of Mine. Nuff said there, not my thing.
Minor Stars were fucking awesome. It's kinda like if you mixed Torche with the relentless energy of the MC5 and Husker Du (when they were good). The guitarist rips it, lots of great solos, and some really tasty riffs thrown in. Go see this band, they're touring and it will be well worth it.
Last band sounded like Clutch. When they did a Clutch cover, I left.
