The three pronged guitar attack of rockNroll.
Gar 
Speedo, himself.Here are some photos I shot at the Marchers show last Thursday at Bottom of the Hill. This was seriously one of the best shows I've ever attended. I was planning on a full scale review but I couldn't break away from the spell the Night Marchers cast on every single person that night. SF may have thought they were equipped to handle the sheer fury of the Swami Sound System's high fusion of rockNroll, but they weren't. They threw down even harder, faster and louder than last April. Shit was killtacular. I almost decided to forsake the evening's festivities in order to fine tune a paper that was due the next morning. I am so glad I paused my responsibilities and went. I will never question the sheer force that Reis and company are capable of delivering on any given basis. My Standouts of the evening were "Closed For Inventory" and "Jump In the Fire". The thumb nail clap never got going during "You Got Nerve" this time. Regardless of a few dedicated trying to kick start the finger percussion band wagon. The one-two closing punch of "Scene Report" and "Fisting the Fan Base" summed up the evening perfectly, a rhythmic freight train equal parts Kitsos and Kourkonis pounding away as Speedo and Gar traded riff after heavy riff. As soon as they made a quick descent to stage right. The sea of fans grew angry at the abrupt conclusion of the evening and began shouting for more. The shouts rang louder and louder until the band came out and delivered a final encore knife into the crowd to satisfy their rockNroll blood lust. My only regrets were not bringing enough cash to score the new tour 7'' they're sporting on this new tour or the new Froberg designed t-shirt, it's got a sweet bubble graphic. Aside from those minor hiccups the night was truly memorable and I can't wait to see them again.
