Here, finally, is one of the most anticipated shows of 2023 for me. I first saw Love Gang by total chance- I was at SXSW in 2018 without a badge and I had a day before my flight out, so I headed to Spider House(FREE and no badge required!) to see Lee Bains III. The venue had like 5 stages with bands playing constantly. I see Keith Morris leaving a room at the venue, so I stroll in there to see what’s up… and HOLY NWOBHM shit there was this band destroying the place. They had a keyboard player but were still super heavy.. and one of the guys was wearing a Witchfinder General shirt! I caught the last song or two and then spent the next 5 years buying their records and bugging the hell out of Chris Lemos to bring them to town.
The show was great, they played a a few off the new album, Mean Streak. The lighting was a challenge- it was only red lights and it was very dark on stage. Don’t let the thumbnail pic fool you- that was a photo flash- it’s DARK… but it sounds pretty damned great, thanks to Pat Hills’ multitrack mix. Thanks Pat!
