L.A.'s The Western States Motel continue to improve themselves every time I see them live. Their first video is as effective and sharp as most major label budgets minus the hefty price tag.
The Little Ones have set out on a tour with the Walkmen and Kaiser Chiefs. These are the facts, and this is their story. We will have updates from the Little Ones every week.
Chicago, IL - Vic Theatre
En
route and on time, or so we thought. First day of joining the Kaiser
Chiefs tour and we were hit with some mild backluck. At the tale end of
a long haul from Columbia to Chicago we hit a wee bit of traffic
getting into the city. It was one of the those scenarios where you have
to load directly onto stage, do an accelerated sound check, sprint off
stage, clean up a bit, then go back out and start the show. I think we
all would of wished it were that easy. Instead, we were line checking
our equipment while doors opened. Which isn't bad in anyway, it's just
odd when there's a crowed already forming at the front of the stage and
half of us are trying to figure out how to setup the absent band
members'equipment. All the while the attentive eyes at the front of the
stage are growing exponentially. Meanwhile, the missing band members
are attempting to park the van and trailer to no luck at all. 10
minutes till stage time and a call comes in from Lee, "we're still
trying to park aaaaaaaaaaand one of our tires just blew up". I think it
was at that point we asked ourselves what the hell else can go wrong
today.
