OAKS and Fever Sleeves at the Ruby Room 2/07/09

After Dizzy's, I only had a few minutes to stop at home to grab a bite and kiss Heather good night before headed to the Ruby Room. I wanted to see OAKS a month ago when this show was originally scheduled, but the Ruby Room double-booked that night and this show got bumped, for some inexplicable reason.

Every time I shoot at the Ken Club, Justin is running sound. He's also the hard hitting drummer from OAKS. and I got there just in time to grab a beer just before they started their set. Sometimes, my timing's just perfect.



Heavy, sludgy rock. Reminded me of a more metal Kyuss.



Of all three of the band members, Justin seems to be having the most fun on stage.









Get these guys, Secret Fun Club, and Hostile Combover on a bill, and you've got a drummer extravaganza!

I've shot Fever Sleeves 3 times in as many months, so I didn't take all that many photos this time and could afford to be brutal during my editing process.

So, one group shot:


And two duos:



And one bonus shot, just because I need someone to tell me what this tattoo is from:


It's got to be from somewhere, otherwise, this guy just did some mad libs, ended up with a list that had "monkey", "turban", "cape", and "robot legs" and thought to himself, "hey, that would make a sweet tattoo."

I've made it a point to mention to them a few times that I'm ready for their full length CD, since I know it's so close to being ready. To throw their own lyrics back at them- don't make me wait for it, I don't wanna.
