So So Glos & Fifty On Their Heels at Beauty Bar 12 06 07

It seemed like the weather, combined with it being December held the kiddies from coming out to play. And they'll be sorry they did. So So Glos and Fifty On Their Heels killed it last night.

But don't fret kiddies, you have a chance to see them TONIGHT AT THE CHE with Mermaid and another band that I can't recall at the moment. Bring all your friends, you won't want to miss them.

Back to last night's show. Wow. Sophie started the night was some great tunes on the tables until So So Glos took the stage.

How to describe them... Alex, lead singer and bassist broke his E string! What?!? I don't think I've ever seen that before. I don't think anyone's ever seen that at the Beauty Bar. Nick (Fifty On Their Heels) was kind enough to let them use his bass so the show continued. So So Glos was full of energy and though they had some technical difficulties, they sounded great. They have a sound that is very reminiscent of the Clash and other bands from that time. They love crowd interaction, so if you go to the show tonight, participate! And buy a CD or a sticker or a button. They have some cool merchandise. Support music!

After So So Glos, Fifty On Their Heels took the stage and presented to the crowd some new songs and some old. It was great to see the guys on stage again. It's been a long time since I've caught a show and they still have the same level of energy going and the music keeps getting better and better. Fifty brought on So So Glos during their last song and it was one big party on the stage. fun times.

Edgartronic took over the tables after Fifty played and he was playing some great mixes. I was out on the floor dancing my toosh off for a bit before I had to head on home. It was a Thursday and I had to go to work the next day.

I just wish there would have been more people there last night. It was a great, great show.

Don't miss them tonight!

John West...

I was recently introduced to Mr. West's music and I was entranced. He has a wonderful voice. His melodies are catchy, yet simple. His lyrics aren't too "much," they speak to everyone or have spoken to everyone at one point in their lives. His CD has been living in my car since I was introduced and had to buy it. It's even living on my computer on repeat.

Check his website out at John West's Myspace

Here's a video...
