tuesday agenda: voxtrot want to fix you like a hug
I’m not sure who thought that four bands on a Tuesday was the best idea, but it’s hard to find fault with the lineup at Neumo’s this evening. Local preciousness in a bottle Math and Physics Club bid a fond farewell to their violinist Saundrah before she ships off to the U.K. and out of their live lineup; Tullycraft are highly likely to inspire some hand gestures and giant smiles from Samantha [mb]; and we we can really hope that late-additions to the bill Division Day treat us to their dreamy narcotic cover of “More Than This” (which puts even Bill Murray’s Lost In Translation version to shame. Once those three bands have warmed you up, or dried you off (depending on the weather), it’s time for Voxtrot. After they got swept up into the west coast Arctic Monkeys tour experience, they’re fulfilling their promises to reschedule headlining slots in smaller venues. Once this tour is over, they’re holing up to work on writing songs for another album; so you don’t want to miss out. On stage, they rock their sensitive lyrics senseless like kids hopped up on sugar at a pajama party.
