I was really looking forward to see Polvo this night, but I'd never heard of Trans Am. I listened to some of their stuff online, and it just seemed a bit too electronica for me. As soon as the opening band finished up, I parked myself in front of the left side of the stage for a good view. If the music wasn't going to be entertaining, at least I could pass the time taking photos. Phil was going to go to the show with me, but he ended up playing a gig with the Tractormen that night and wasn't able to make both. He did say that he'd look out for my photos of the show, put on a Trans Am CD, and it would feel like he was right there. Awww, thank Phil, this post is for you!



3 guys playing 2 keyboards, 2 basses, guitar, drums, and drum machine, along with heavily effected vocals.



This guy and the drummer were both wearing a slightly out-of-place looking piece of bling. The drummer had a heavy gold chain, and this guy had a blue arm-warmer on his right arm. I spent some time looking for the one piece of flair on the guitarist, but couldn't find one.



The music still didn't move me too much, although the crowd at this sold-out show was definitely into it. It seems to me that the music was all about the heavy, pounding drums. The drummer was going full-blast the whole time.



I was entertained during this set, I think they sound better live than they do on CD, although I'm certainly not the best judge of their music, having had very little time with it.
