The New Dealio

Not much I can say about The New Deal show, is there? Here's some notes I made on my palm.

(yeah, I made notes during their set. I have mad Graffiti™ skillz, 'prezent yaw)

• "Spinja Girl" gettin' her dance on for the opening DJ. Her moves were totally hyped out
• The DJ was playing a really good Trance/Jazz House set until he threw down something that sounded like beat-up Huey Lewis and the News. People totally responded well to it. I think it's about time that big band/rock sound came back (to the future?).
• The Wabi visuals were totally neat. All mixed live with some neat "car moving through city" and "carnival" real world footage. Also stuff from old Vectrex games:
  • Defender
  • Tempest
  • Space War
  • "Spikey"
• The drummer did some beat boxing on the mic while still doing cymbal and kicks. Nice work!
• The parachute was there hanging from the ceiling as usual. Very cool.
• Show in Muskoka in August

What a great show. Next time I hope Greg (plaidninja) isn't out of town, he woulda loved it. And that boy know to dy-ance! Bought a cool tND shirt but I lost my flyer I wanted to put on my bulletin board. I can probably pick one up at The Pit Record on the way back home.
