SPR

I went to go see the Ex Models & Oneida at Secret Project Robot in Bklyn last night. It was a last minute benefit show for Eat Records. The last time I went to SPR was for Oneida's Brahloween show a couple of months ago, but that was at a difference space over on Kent near Glasslands. This SPR venue was on River and Metropolitan attached to this art space called Live With Animals. There was an art opening before the show and I ran into some people that I met while standing in line for an Oneida show at Southpaw last fall.

Ex Models started a little after 9 and they were playing in another formation, this time w/ just Zach and Shah on guitars and Kid Millions on drums. I have some some video for 2 of the songs from Chrome Panthers. Oneida was on next and played all new songs, including Ghost In The Room and a half-hour suite called Pre-Teen Weaponry. The show was over around 11, but there was a loft party off the Morgan Ave stop on the L in Flushing. Knyfe Hyts, Red Dawn II, Used To Be Women, and The Library Is On Fire were on the bill there. Wolfy from Red Dawn II gave me some tequila for giving his friend directions to the party earlier that night at SPR, and I gave Bobby Matador directions to the surbway outside a bodega at like 330 in the morning after the party. MSTRKRFT/LA Riots tomorrow.
