The Tom Tom Benefit party last night at Death By Audio was a throwback to a college house party, albeit one featuring female drummers and mostly female musicians.
Death By Audio, a warehouse-esque space with graffiti-drowned walls and typical sketchy dive-bar bathrooms, reminded me of the older, dirtier Glasslands.
With lots of live performances and cheap PBR, the night was a fun, frivolous time that hopefully proved to raise enough money to launch Tom Tom Magazine's first issue, which was the premise of the party. Well, the groups and the magazine-to-be have at least achieved more exposure... and perhaps, notoriety.
Pics to come!
The irony was that my favorite act was Bad Brilliance, who was neither a female nor a drummer, but made really good beats and performed in costume in a giant blood-orange suit and a balloon for hi head. Enough said.
