Apples in Stereo Plays at The Black Cat
Last night I got a chance to see Apples in Stereo play at The Black Cat here in Washington, DC. The Black Cat is a nice venue. Very funky, though not quite as gritty as the H Street-area venues in Northeast DC. I'm still acclimating myself to the local scene...
This is a rather vapid observation of mine, but Apples in Stereo is quite a bit louder in concert than they are on their albums, which have a more psychedelic/indie-pop sound to them. Still, they were great to see, but I was surprised that the turnout was so low. Not only are they fairly well-known, but their show was mentioned by Wonkette.
UPDATE: DCist reviews the show and uses one of my pics in their entry. Also, one reason that the show seemed to have a small crowd: More-indie-than-thou band The Decemberists were playing in DC on that same evening at The 9:30 Club.
Pictures after the jump...
