Vivian Girls @ Club DeVille

"Brooklyn Bowl is gearing up for round two of Local X Local featuring Brooklyn's own indie chick-rockers Vivian Girls, with support from the German Measles. This monthly celebration of Brooklyn art and culture showcases local artists, musicians, food, entertainment and anything else that defines Brooklyn. As the borough continues to emerge as one of the nation's fastest growing culture capitals, Local X Local allows New Yorkers a free, monthly opportunity to sample the fruits of Brooklyn."The above described free (but 21+) show takes place at Brooklyn Bowl on Sunday March 28th. Vivian Girls also have an April show coming up at Maxwell's, and they'll be at ATP NY this year.
Brooklyn Bowl will be Vivian Girls' first hometown show after returning from a tour that started at SXSW where they played a bunch of shows. One of those was the Insound Party at Club DeVille where they went on after Small Black and before Liars (who we interviewed that morning). Another one of those was an intimate show at Todd P's location, Cheer Up Charlie's (ex Ms Bea's). Cassie was celebrating a birthday that day and the crowd sang for her. We got it on video which you can watch below with other videos of the band playing that venue with all dates and more pictures from Club DeVille....

Those crowd shots do not inspire confidence. Ah, the sacrifices one makes for cred.

They're ugly. And for all the people who complain it should be about the music, the music is awful too so what else is there to talk about.

Trashing Vivian Girls anonymously on brooklynvegan is so 2007.

If you guys got laid more often you wouldn't be so grumpy.

I'd say this is the cutest every Vivian Girl has looked since I started seeing pictures corp up of them a couple years. ago. Besides that I don't know any cute/cool chicks in my life that play music let alone grunge/garage rock. That might make me lame but I think these girls are the tops.

please tell me the guitarist is a junkie or homeless or has medical issues. Otherwise, there is absolutely no reason to be out in public looking that wrecked and ugly.

Vivian girls are great.
You guys make me so fucking happy I don't live in Brooklyn, so I don't have to share oxygen with you. Dealing with constant sneering, hipster one-upsmanship every day sounds like the deepest, pabst-stenching pit in hell.

Katy is pretty cute..Chubs on drums would be a much better player if she lost her jelly belly. The guitar player looks like she is strung out on heroin..

2:09 - no they really shouldn't...ever.
...and cassie is the hottest thing in bk (alongside sharon van etten), yeah her make up is running (but they're in the republic of texas and she doesn't need the stuff anyway), i still love you, and your legs call me 347 952 6170 :P

Hey 4:58 and anyone afterward,lay off! All because the drummer isn't pencil thin like the many arrogant guys I've seen in Brooklyn that doesn't make her less of a musician! There are plenty of girls the same size, she's average! If you don't like itkeep your damn eyes off their posts!

Some lo fi is good but this is real off tune etc.
I'll take some raw Thee Headcoats instead with a side of Milkshakes.

Posted by Anonymous | March 26, 2010 9:17 PM
Newsflash. Their "15 minutes" has been going on for close to 3 years.

Tig Notaro is a cannibal. She shouldn't associate with Vegan events.

Julian Cope on Mac:
"I gots to tell y’all that when I heard the other day that the Bunnymen’s Ian McCulloch is writing his autobiography, I nearly shat my undies laughing so hard (good job I don’t wear any!); Ian Mac write a book? A man for whom completing a single song on his own is a struggle of Everest the Hard Way proportions is hardly going to write a book. Ian, I’m speechless at your continued arrogance in the face of no evidence whatsoever. In my opinion, you’ve been a dried-up shell of a husk of a man since just after OCEAN RAIN, so don’t embarrass us all with your ludicrous claims that you’re gonna write an autobiography. Two words… No Way. Writing a book involves discipline and hard work, two things you never nailed in the past and never will. As I heard it, you even said in the press that your book will be better than the Bible. Well, in two ways it may well be like the Bible: 1) it’ll be full of half-truths and outright lies, and 2) it’ll have been written by umpteen uncredited writers and you’ll name yourself solely as its author. There you go, dumkopf, I just handed you the map: don’t even bother buying yourself a pen, son; just do what you’ve always done throughout your career; get someone else to do most of the work then claim all the credit yourself. I even have a title already: MAC USER. And with that, I shall sweep off into the Beltane sunset. Yowzah!"

Wonderful post and the location is beautiful and elegant in design and information and everything>>> to Favorites
Amazing is an enormous understatement. One of the best electronic shows I've ever been to and I've seen well over a thousand concerts. I had no idea Vladislav Delay was as good a drummer & percussionist as he is- fabulous and he kept everything swinging with a very unique style of playing. If you missed this you missed out big time...
