rademacher residency review of week 3

so, last night was week three of the residency and i was excited to see circles and circles. they didn't disappoint.

neither did rademacher. in fact, all the complaints i had a few weeks back i take back. they were spot on, and played a very good set despite coming straight off the road. they literally arrived back from touring with the airborne toxic event and the henry clay people to play this show, which caused it all to start a little late. but it was worth the wait.

santonie's revenge opened the show, and i found them quite enjoyable. i liked their punk/rock mix of sound. the songs were well crafted and enjoyable. what i didn't really like - the half naked hipster guy dancing behind the band. he was like a car crash that you couldn't look away from.

all in all, i'm excited for the final week of the residency which will have sleepover disaster playing, and brian kenney fresno joining rademacher.

i enjoyed last night's rademacher set more than any that i have seen from them since brad left. really good stuff. their little mini-tour seemed to do them a lot of good. morale seemed high too. they even have new nicknames. manhole? wtf?

true, the nicknames were funny. and you're right, they all seemed pretty pumped, although eli looked tired as hell.
