Bagels and The Upsidedown
Posted by: Greg | From: July 29, 2006
Junior Private Detective's opening set. D'oh! Even though I have seen them at the last two festivals, I was looking forward to checking out their new bass-less lineup, especially after the hearing their new album, which was recorded by secret Portland music scene svengali Skyler Norwood, who worked on the Talkdemonic, Alan Singley, Horsefeathers and Point Juncture Washington records.
The first band of the day that I did catch was The Upsidedown. In their best moments, they sound like the kind of dark dancey 80s New Wave that wouldn't be out of place in the Marie Antoinette trailer. And they have six members including two girls and two guys in shorts and cowboy boots, so you can't really complain about that.
That rumbling from above is probably Boy Eats Drum Machine getting so started, so I'm going to head up and check that out. It's still very early and we've got quite a lot of great music ahead of us. . .
