Photos! Gene Loves Jezebel Upstairs at the Middle East 2/7/08

Gene Loves Jezebel

There’s a list of bands I want to see at least once in my lifetime — Gene Loves Jezebel is definitely on that list. The new wave+rock+gothic band is on a U.S. tour that brought them to The Middle East (upstairs) last night. Singer and guitarist Jay Aston owns the rock and roll squawk. They seemed to be having a lot of fun on a stage that is considerably smaller than where they played back in the day. And of course they ended the show with their big 1985 hit “Desire.” Charismatic is an understatement for this band.

Video! MEandJOANCOLLINS at TT The Bear’s

Here’s a fun video that Rachel, a fan of the band MEandJOANCOLLINS, shot at TT The Bear’s in December featuring singer/guitarist Bo Barringer. You can see the band back at TT’s this coming Saturday, February 9th.

Get Out! Static of the Gods video release party at Enormous Room on Thursday February 7th

Peluche

Pop rockers Static of the Gods have a new album in the works. First up is a video release party for “Peluche” at Enormous Room (567 Mass Ave., Central Square, Cambridge) on Thursday, February 7th. The video will be shown throughout the night starting at 8:30. The party also features DJ Boo Boo Danger. It’s 21+ and there’s no cover charge. I think I’ll stop by before heading up the street to the Gene Loves Jezebel/Broken River Prophet show at The Middle East Upstairs.
