Behold Golden City whose members are nice,
Some fine guitar players with picking precise.
The vocals were strong and quite passion-containing,
Plus the drummer sang too, that’s always entertaining.

This guy was especially awesome:

Monomen next, they’re not from ‘round these parts,
These guys hold the 80’s so near to their hearts.
The singer looked twelve but sang like a grown man.
And of neckerchiefs he is clearly a fan.

To the night Team Robespierre made a fine contribution,
Though from Brooklyn they recall the French Revolution.
The energy’s strong with this rascally bunch,
Electronic rock with a big punky punch.

These guys say that Saturday Looks Good to Me,
That they rocked it seemed, most of the crowd did agree.
The Michigan scene this great act reinforces,
And especially good was the song about horses.

    I agree. Poetic music reviews are awesome, and I’m almost certain Liz is breaking new ground. Liz and Laura, innovators to the end.

    This are the best pictures + commentary ever. I think all captions should be in verse.
