The Mother-Fucking Trews
Before you even start, stop. I know basically none of you even know who The Trews are, much less have heard any of their songs or write them off before even hearing them. Well, its time we changed all that.
Joey and myself went to Arizona's tonight to see them. They brought the house down. They seriously put on one of the best live shows I've ever seen in my life. I don't know how they are flying so low below the radar. They have 2 cds. House of Ill Fame and the recently released Den of Theives. Both of them are solid throughout, not a weak track in there. They just finished opening up for the rolling stones and are about to go on tour opening up for Robert Plant (former lead singer of Led Zepplin.) As for the concert...
They played a good mix of tunes off both cd's as well as two awsome zepplin covers. The guitarist is maybe the sickest individual I've ever witnessed grinding an ax. He almost puts guys like Ian Thornley and Jeff Martin to shame with his energy and just wicked talent. The lead singer has one of the better voices I've heard, sounding just as clear live as on the cds. He also plays the piano and guitar. The drummer was sweet, not as good as blackie from thornley but he held it down. The bass player was the most laid back guy out there but he was no slouch.
The concert was going great, until the guy standing in front of us decided that was a good place to take a leak. I felt something wet lightly hitting my feet and was like what the hell. Then we see douche, hands in his pants, just going, not even giving us the courtesy of the kneel down. Then to our right was this huge posse of just really sloppy drunks. They took their shirts off, the played tug of war with a scummy sweat towel the guitarist tossed in the crowd. They were completely shot individuals. Aside from that though, great time, i even came away with a drum stick.
If this band isnt just huge in the near future, then theres somethign wrong with this planet and the people in it. So do me, the trews, and yourself a favor. Dip into my shared folder and nab these cd's. You won't regret it.
