Teenage Bottlerocket pics

Caught a fast, fun set by Teenage Bottlerocket last night at Chasers' in Scottsdale. Pics below.




The band played great - tight, tuneful, fun. I sang along to "In the Basement" - great tune that. Like The Ramones, the band goes slam bang right into the next song, without stopping a beat. We were all pogoing at one point.

Stayed a bit for The Lawrence Arms, but left a few songs in. I was too pissed off at Chasers. Dire club conditions ABOUND - the only working stage lights were in the back by drums and a few on the side - none up front on the singers at the mics. You couldn't see the bands! And two bartenders for a LOT of thirsty people? Bad, bad form, Chasers - no wonder the rock scene here is eroding. Who likes being at clubs that are poorly run?
Aargh.

See the full set here.
