at Neumos

Starfucker brought the heat to Neumos with a set that could make even the most waifish of concert goers sweat bullets. Fans literally jumped and danced for twelve straight songs (plus an encore that included a drop in from Champagne Champagne and one awesome kid who crowd surfed like a champ). Copy, the opener, also killed with delightfully heavy beats overlayed with intricate keytar (can the keytar even be intricate?!). And Truckasauras filled the middle with interesting noise and a hype man that wouldn't quit (I just kinda wished he would). Starfucker is continuing up and down the west coast, but I guarantee they will be back for some summer jams. Check 'em when you can.
