AUDIO: Fake Problems at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ 8.3.11


Much like the Lucero show, I walked in as Fake Problems were playing their first song. I need to stop doing that. This is a band I wasn't sure if I liked or not, but from what I heard, they put on a good show. What I heard was right. Now I'm a fan. I had the mic level up a bit too high, but it's not too bad. Still a good recording from a great show.

AUDIO: The Swellers at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ 8.3.11


Second on the bill that night were The Swellers. It was loud as fuck. Impressive to say the least. The audio came out better than I expected too. 12 songs. Just under 45 minutes.

AUDIO: Daytrader at Maxwell's in Hoboken, NJ 8.3.11


Daytrader was the first of three bands to play on this tour. They're from Long Island and some of the guys used to play in Crime in Stereo and Latterman. I don't know who played in what and I don't feel like looking it up right now either. If you're familiar with this type of music, that should be just about all you need to know. None the less, prior to this show Daytrader put out a demo and an EP. They played all the songs from those releases, plus a new one.
