they were scientists

we are scientists rocked the magic stick last night. though they only played for about 45 minutes, it was very high on the funkydanceabilitymeterscale.

i took only one poor picture, and will therefore post a similar shot from a show i very clearly was not at (yeah hard rock!). the band, as pointed out by katy, succumbed to a few off beats while they seamlessly segued from one "with love and squalor" tune to the next. i guess they can be forgiven. the bassist, after all, did have a mustache and raquet ball goggles on. i think adam enjoyed it as well. ran into a few old friends as well as some who i didn't really want to see or talk to.

it felt a little like the spring 2005 bloc party show, simply because W.A.S. seem to garner similar buzz, and the venue wasn't even that packed. will they be back for an encore at the royal oak music theater? it think it's possible, particularly given their label and timing. fox and josh schwartz are always ready to whore out another decent dance rock trio to the panting public.

oh, do check out the thighs wide shut top movies of the year and laugh your ass off while you miss the golden globes tonight.

good day.
