From A Few Nights Ago

These iPhone babies were taken at the most recent Kurt Vile show on Wednesday at a sold-out Hemlock Tavern:








It must seem to you that the majority of my posts are about this guy. That is because I think he is completely and utterly brilliant, and the guys he jams with in the Violators are like Vile's four extra limbs. His band brought the heat just as I was told but they also let Kurt do his own thing, especially near the end when he played both "Heart Attack" and "Dead Alive", two of my favorites, off his new album. And the live version of "The Hunchback" didn't disappoint either. Vile's show are all about scraping over new territory to annihilate what he's done before.
