Sorry for the late post but I figured better late then never, right? Last Thursday I went to R-Bar for Rumors, which is a new party/show. That's the first time I've been to R-Bar. It's decent I guess, the drinks are expensive and there's stripper poles. Both of which can be good or bad depending on which side of the East River you live on.
The lineup was pretty awesome - Boy Crisis, Teenage Prayers, Photo Atlas, Young Lords, Robbers On High Street, and The Virgins (who were the secret guest). The Photo Atlas was fucking awesome! Seriously, they got even better then they were the last time I saw them. I also dug Young Lords set. Despite knowing former members that's the first time I've seen them. They're pretty much the definition of rock n' roll. These dudes look like they live the life according to Keith and Mick.
The Virgins were surprisingly good despite the awkward as fuck band members. The Virgins, "it's not just a clever name". But they got better with every song. I also got drunker with every song, which might mean something.
The rest of the bands were good but I just didn't have the attention span for all six bands. I kinda drifted around between the band room and the main bar all night. Overall it was fun and the bands were all good. Well done Rumors.

Tonight: Rumors (Bands, Open Bars, Free Stuff)
Tonight I highly recommend hitting R Bar for the latest installation of Rumors. The line-up includes Robbers On High Street, Young Lords, The Photo Atlas, Boy Crisis, Teenage Prayers and a secret guest band that doesn't like sex **hint hint**. There will be two open bars, free shirts, free snacks, live art, and Ultragrrrl is hosting or DJing or something like that. It's $10 which is more then I'm usually down to pay but it's a good lineup and there's lots of free shit so $10 ain't shit tonight.
