Grand old time

So here we are at the second Rock'N'Roll pizza Party with headliner Grand Trine. Grand Trine were in town at the start of the year where they played to a pretty packed house and engaged in lots of shirtless crowd-surfing, drumkit demolition and other shenanigans. The railing at Nine kind of counteracts those kinds of shenanigans (and the lighting system is too high to swing from). But the music really packed a punch - I think I may have liked the set more on that level.

Tobias Richman sports some spotlight-defeating shades (a loan from the notorious M. Carruthers, if I recall correctly).

Shub Roy and his evil mirror-world twin.

At least you can lean on the rail.

A bit less well-suited for sitting on.

Tobias works the crowd.

"I feel the need to do something with this railing ..."

The end!

I bought their excellent new EP; they're performing with Tyvek July 9 (a Friday) ... hmm, maybe they could fit in a show here on the Thursday ...
