So not only is this a thread sparking up discussion about the band stated above, but a review of the show i saw in SF at the Bottom of the Hill
First off i would just like to say that wild orchid children is a band that deserves a hell of a lot of attention. These guys blew my face off for the second time. They have this deep rock your face off groove that you dont want to stop listening to. And a stage presence by the singer and guitarist that just makes you wanna give them more money after the shows over.
Overall the show was good, it was the last show of the tour so i think everyone wanted to go out on a rockin note. The only bad thing about the show i would say is douchebags in the crowd (and what show dosent have one) and portugal the man had WAY too many instruments up on stage. But they made the best of it, i love watching them slam the same riffs for 4 minutes because they just rock the shit out of them. The setlist was good and they deffinitly closed the night out well.
But what i want to talk about is foxy shazam. Does anyone have a story about these guys? They are such a mystery and they are so odd but they rock out in a way ive never seen before. The singer was almost a standup comedian (almost annoying) and a opera singer in one. The keyboardist looked like serj tankians long lost son who was tap dancing all over his keyboards. The bassist looked like a Lead singer of The Cure wannabe and he was screaming his lungs out. It was soooo awesome. They totally suprised me. But a show with them and wild orchid children was alone worth the trip, and then portugal the man calmed everyone down and then rocked it hard. Wonderful show.
