The Brood

Elliott Brood are playing with The Acorn at Irene's April 6. I caught their show at Zaphod's, and it was a double whammy. First, the opening act was The John Henrys, who were unknown to me and great. Then Elliott Brood repeated the feat. Amazing bill. Extra points for nifty CD packaging and using a suitcase as a kick drum. Just pop your microphone inside and away you go. He got a nice, meaty thump out of it, too.
