The L.E.Ds are playing Mighty Mighty on Friday night, and you should go along. But make sure not to party too hard and render yourself incapable of attending the official Newtownista flatwarming the next day...
Plus, they played at the Great Blend, where some of us were dragged off by unappreciative others and didn't get a chance to dance.
And Mighty Mighty is always good for sleb-spotting. Both Conchords were there last Friday, and Bret was dancing even though he wasn't angry.
The L.E.D.s rule. They sound like they're from the future and the past and the present, and are one of those bands that suddenly appear and manage to sound like nothing else currently coming out of New Zealand.
Here are three reasons why you should go along to the gig:
1. They don't play live much due to the band members being split between Christchurch and Wellington. (They create with the magic of the webz). So when they do play live, it's special.
2. They have a cracking new song called Still that's about love and depression. It's so upbeat it makes me happy whenever I listen to it. Go on and listen to it on their MySpace page
3. I'll be there, so that makes it just that extra bit rad.
