Ozma Plays at the Rock and Roll Hotel

IMG_4428

Things come full circle. Back in October of '06, I made my first trip to the Rock and Roll Hotel to see a show. Now, at my return to the Rock and Roll Hotel, I saw Ozma, a band I first saw in July of '04 when I first started this weblog. At the time, they were opening for Rooney along with Straylight Run. Now, this weekend, Ozma was the headliner at the Rock and Roll Hotel on Friday, Rooney is at the 930 Club Saturday, and Straylight Run is the headliner at The Black Cat on Sunday night. I wonder if that was coordinated.

I was able to make it for one of Ozma's opening bands, Eastern Conference Champions, which were a three-member band that sounded a lot like the Smashing Pumpkins. Ozma likes them enough that one of their guitarists wore an ECC t-shirt during their show.
