Here's what I knew about The Hold Steady. My brother in law loves them. And I keep hearing the phrase "Best Bar Band in America". So it's off to my first show at The Beauty Bar downtown to see if they can live up to the hype. By the time The Hold Steady came on (11.15pm - too late for this old guy on a school night) the back patio at the Beauty Bar was pretty full. And yes, I did say the back patio. This outdoor venue is good for a few hundred people at the back of the main bar. God knows why I haven't been here before (and in hindsight am kicking myself for missing the Detroit Cobras last fall). There were some problems wih the vocals for the first couple of songs, but nothing wrong with the band. They were into it from the word go and put on a memorable show. They definitely lived up to the hype and hopefully success comes their way. Now I have to go away and find some of their music, so next time I can fully get into it, though that wont be possible before next Friday at Coachella. Setlist Same Kooks / The Swish / Magazines / You Can Make Him Like You / You Gotta Dance (With Who You Came With) / Multitude of Casualties / Constructive Summer / Hot Soft Light / Navy Sheets / Chips Ahoy! / Chicago Seemed Tired Last Night / Charlemagne in Sweatpants / Bangin’ Camp / Yeah Sapphire / One for the Cutters / Stay Positive / Lord I’m Discouraged / Hornets!
