Slippy Larue, of Columbia, Missouri came out to the Jazzhaus to open for Mouth, fusing synthesizers, keys, drums and guitar to blast the small venue with fantastic jams. The band's hypnotic trance tunes and stirring rhythms filled the Jazzhaus with energy. Slippy Larue demonstrates a kind of dedicated practice and brilliant music choreography that is hard to find anywhere. It was a perfect opening act for Mouth.
The only down side to the opener's performance was the crowd. There wasn't one. People showed up late to the bar and missed out on an epic performance, but the folks that had come early to appreciate the great music got a stunning set from the opener. Hopefully Slippy Larue will return and see a bigger crowd next time!
But aside from a slow start, the night went very well. Mouth came to the stage with some familiar, great songs, that have been tweaked, improved and over-hauled to give the crowd a set of exciting, intense songs that are definitely classic Mouth, but bigger and better than ever. Songs like Virtuality and Worm sounded like they had gotten a jolt of electricity in them, giving the familiar songs a new vibe.
Fortunately for Mouth, the crowd had finally come out in time for them, and the dance floor was packed, seats all filled and the bar was alive. The party didn't stop until after two encore songs, much to the delight of the grateful audience. Mouth knows how to treat their fans.
Now for Previews:
Tonight, Saturday, Cicada Rhythm is putting on a show at the Granada, just $5 for adrenaline-pumping electronic dance music. Lincoln, Nebraska's Somasphere is headlining with Sam Krause, and DJason. This should be a great show, probably packed, considering how low the price is and how fantastic the music will be!
Then, Tuesday, back at the Granada, The Faint will be playing their famous electronic pop rock for $15. If you're into that kinda thing, this'll probably be a pretty great show. It's always exciting when big acts come to town!
