Lourds in KEnt OH

[Sportyfan]

Dev, here's a couple of pics that I promised you last week from the show that my son and I went to with the Lourds on Feb 3 in Kent Ohio.



The second pic is from the song Astropop which is a rather lively partipation song.



First heard them playing at the Chiller in June. They're worth a look. To anyone who wants to hear four of their songs go to their myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/lourds
Just a heads up, they make a return trip through the north east Ohio area at the end of March. Go and you'll probably see me there. I'll be the only geezer in the front row!

Their music had enough hooks to hold interest, but got bland vibes offa them as a whole back at Chiller. Pre-processed (seen that - old hat) canned-teen-rebellion faux punk, what "Rawk" radio stations are so hungry to gobble up.

They just feel like another alt-rock garage band with adequate talent waiting for a "Record Producer" to shower them with cash to make a "real" album.

Just reporting for a friend there Reved. Posted the link to let those who care judge the music for themselves. I really enjoy their live show and their canned-teen-rebellion faux punk. That's just my opinion and we all know what opinions are like.

First time I saw LOURDS was back in 95 or 96 here in NY they warmed up for
Joan Jett and The Black [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img] s I enjoyed them very much then and I enjoyed them at the Chiller event. I wasn't all that crazy about the dead elvi's but with the exception that Jake and Cherie did those 2 songs with them Cherry_Bomb and Man in the box the dead elvi's were ok.

Glad you had a good time Mike [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Thanks Sporty... Love the shots!

They are one of my favorite bands. I had seen them open for Joan back in 1995 at Tuxedo Junction in Danbury, CT. - Though I hate to say it, they blew Joan's perfomance away and the place went wild for them. I was hooked on this band and still am today.

Hey... Have you seen them on YMC? Check it out - Click on the link, enter the site, go to tab titled "City Sessions" scroll down til you find "LOURDS" and click the preview button. It runs a breif interview with the band and then the video for "Super Girl."
