Ette was fun... bad pun, I know, I know...

Went with the Girlfriend and some friends to Lee's Palace last night to catch a live show. The headliner was a band from Los Angeles, The Ettes, who have been generating a buzz States side and put on a kick ass show. The highlight of their set was watching their unorthodox, yet exuberant drummer, Maria "Poni" Silver, pounding on the drums as her hair flailed all over the place. But the biggest news of the night was seeing Shitt Hottt blow away the rest of the bands out of the water last night - The I-Spies and Hot Monogamy were also on the bill. Performing crowd favorites like "Ready, Aim, Fire", "Rendez-Vous", "The Jig Is Up" (a personal favorite), plus debuting two new songs, "Pull Out" and an as of now untitled track, Andrea, Michelle, Ryan, and Sarah rocked Lee's Palace.
Their next gig is Saturday, March 24th at the White Orchid. Some other bands like Beth in Battle Mode, Boyfriend Material, The European Union, Ontario Power Generation, Beast Cancer, Shawn Jurek, Secret Star, Songs From a Room, and Pants & Tie will also be performing. Should be a great show.
Also, they'll be recording soon so I'm also looking forward to the CD release party, whenever that will be. I expect big things from them this summer.
