my god talk about over-saturation - 4 shows in the NYC area in a row off of one album (that has been played out by now)

it's not over-saturation if they all sell out. they'll probably add another nj show when this one sells out instantly. good for them. met them at a show right before they blew up and they were great guys.

remember seeing VW at the bloomfield ave cafe at least 2 years ago if anyone remembers that place. coincedentally it is right across the street from the wellmont. kind of a full circle thing.

This is great for them. They were very nice when I met them outside of their bowery album release show. The bass player Chris Baio is especially nice

These guys suck and I'm sick and tired of having to open up everyone's eyes to it.

Ezra grew up in Glen Ridge, which is the town right next to Montclair, which is where I grew up. I used to see his high school band play basement shows in Montclair all the time. They were amazing. This is definitely a huge full circle show.

(trivia: that high school band also included Wes from Ra Ra Riot and the man who is now King Darves)

I was with Ezra the moment he heard Boston's More than a Feeling on Q104. It was at that moment I knew he was destined to craft a disappoint second album.
