Urge Overkill
Glad to see that Chicago '90s rockers Urge Overkill rocked it out at the North by Northeast (NXNE) music fest this past weekend - QuadB writes...
Finally, we stuck around to see Urge Overkill. I really only have a mild interest in this band, and my reasons for sticking around to see them were really out of curiosity to see if these guys are still capable of rocking out. As you likely know, their self-destructive history has led many to wonder if they still have it in them. Answer? Yep. They rocked it old school without missing a beat and running through all of the crowd favourites. By this time I was now beyond tired so I only stayed for the first encore. The way the fans were cheering, I'm sure that they had at least one more and I'd be curious to know if they did bother to whip out the old Neil Diamond cover or not.
I saw Urge at one of the past few years' reform shows....and it rocked well. Hope they make it back to NYC soon. Rumor has it they are working on a new CD, but no official word yet.

Hey thanks for the kind words bro. You've got a real good blog here. I'll add a link to my page also.
Sorry dude, I think I might've messed up your photo link here. I recently just put up a little watermark on all of my concert shots on flickr so I think the link is slightly changed. If you go back to where this picture was originally, you can probably add it again. Sorry.
