Twitter outbursts sometimes speak the truth in 140 characters or less and the current truth in Jay Reatard’s life is that his band has ditched him. Or as the man without a band tweets:
“Fuck them ! They are boring rich kids who can’t play for ahit anyways .. Say hello to your ugly and boring wifes opps I mean lifes guys suck it [.]”
I hate rich kids too, Jay. That’s why I was hesitant to post that Vampire Weekend track yesterday. They think just because they went to an Ivy League school and sing songs about Horchatas that they know what’s up. But, they don’t. Punk ROCK!

I’d like to clarify that for this show they cut off the back half of Neumo’s floor with a curtain and had the upstairs bar closed. It made Neumo’s obviously seem much smaller than it is. Unfortunately, now having seen Neumo’s fully open at another show I can say that this show was very empty. Still White Denim and Brazos rocked.

I agree, it’s very good. Way to deflate their balloon.

Love the photos. And that “Walkabout” song is the drugs.
