i saw one DDN date, the one in NY (i have a review ready somewhere....).
the band were bottom to top outstanding and the sound was great. atop it
all, the pool at mccarren park is just a great place to see a show.
kim rocked hell with the t-bird and her vocal performance on every song.
and you know she was not the most enthused member about the whole
play DDN in order concept.
but to pick a standout, i used the "who impressed more on the lesser part
of the show?" in my opinion, the "lesser part" was "total trash". far from
a trainwreck, but the band was clearly still uncomfortable with it--weird
pacing, inconsistent energy. but during that "clearing all the pots and
pans from under the sink" middle, steve absolutely shined. he was
pounding the fuck out of his kit, absolutely grabbing that song by the
neck and DEMANDING it get back on its feet.
force and precision...the ss beat patrol.
