ADULT. show at Walters 11.04.05

I was introduced to ADULTS. music about a year ago. The song "Nitelife" instantly grabbed my attention and I still play it out to set the dance floor off. Electronic beats, synths, some guitar and bass action, and vocals worth checking out if your into it. They recently dropped a new cd "Gimmie Trouble" on Thrill Jockey. Peep out some of their mp3's off the website if you've never heard about them to get a taste.



ADULT. is describing “Gimmie Trouble” as the definitive sound of the new urban hunting range. Camping with screaming crickets and swimming with electric zapper fish. Riding an empty city bus from the Interzone to the exurbs or jumping in your Ford and getting the hell outta Dodge. It’s like a junkyard, a graveyard, a deviant late night hangout and a deviant early morning at a law firm. It’s gripping like your fist around a long neck and relieving like your first pull from it. It’s straight outta Michigan. (taken from ADULTS. website.)



The show was cool except for the immature hater or haters that were flicking cigarettes at the stage for some dumb reason. It also seemed like lead singer Nicola Kuperus was annoyed with the two boys making out in the front row and decided to stage dive on top of them as shown in the last picture. I was originally on the bill to dj between acts, but some groups or their managers are funny about having dj's. Oh well, Its' not like I was going to try and steal the show, whatever, all good. Thanks for the invite Andrew (Super Unison) and the $$$ Holler!
