Damon & Naomi @ Housing Works, NYC | Pics

Damon and Naomi played Housing Works Used Book Cafe on Friday, February 18th, 2005. I was pretty bored during their performance. Damon told a story before every song. Their resume was the only thing that kept me somewhat interested. Damon and Naomi are 2/3 of the now defunct Galaxie 500 (the other 1/3 is in Luna), they collaborate with the Japanese band Ghost, Pitchfork just gave their latest album an 8.0, and Mike Doughty of the now defunct Soul Coughing (the headliner at this show) said how excited he was to be playing with them because Galaxie 500 was the first band he went to see at (the endangered) CBGB in 1989 when he first moved to NYC.

Emiliana Torrini opened the show. I previously posted those pictures. More on this show, including mp3's of Emiliana's performance, at The Oh So Quiet Show.
