Takka Takka @ Union Hall, Brooklyn, NY | pics
DOWNLOAD: I take my drinks like Jackson (MP3)
Union Hall is a great new venue - good sound and space, plus Takka Takka rocked (Aug 17, 2006) - they actually rocked more than I expected given the mellower nature a lot of their music. They gave me more of a Hold Steady bar-band feel than the indie rockness of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (who they're touring with). Don't miss them. And oh yeah, they all smiled a lot. I love that.
"And last night’s set, a truly skilled performance that offered a near-perfect balance of musicianship and showmanship, proved they may just deserve every bit of star-rising that comes their way." [stereoactivenyc]
Takka Takka play with Annuals @ Sin-e in NYC on September 14th. Then they go on tour.

Union Hall has a terrible jukebox and equally terrible lighting upstairs.

The lead singer looks like he might be really hot. Can someone confirm or deny this for me?

i missed this one but was at their recent merc lounge show and was equally impressed by their energetic live show. they can really rock. the new album is very good too.

there are so many things we can neither confirm nor deny.
