Electric Six

So Noelle and I finally got to see the Electric Six Tuesday night. They've been around a few times, but we always seem to be out of town when they come around. I was a little worried that the trip would be a boondoggle since we were both a bit tired and the show was at the Independent, which is in a largely residential neighborhood, which has 0.0% public parking in the vicinity. I shouldn't have worried, as it was a really fun show and we got a parking place in under half an hour.

The opening act Gore Gore Girls was an interesting all girl, mostly vinyl clad rockabilly type act. They were fairly entertaining.

The Six themselves were in fine form. I'd never seen them before and was surprised to see that the lead singer looked vaguely like the singer from Simply Red (if you're old enough to remember them). The band was tight and we got to hear Improper Dancing, Dance Commander, Gay Bar, and of course Danger! High Voltage! (among others).
