Notes From Vivace’s May Playlist
Lemon Sun: “Same Old Ground”
Dirty Kings: “Who’s Along for the Ride”
Ex-Gentlemen: “Oh Mona”
New London: “LA’s Orange Lights”
Mere Mortals: “Clear Sky Overdrive”
Silver Needle: “Tourniquet”
Underwater City People: “Jennifer”
The Rainman Suite: “Rich Boys”
Dusty Rhodes and the River Band: “Blind Lead the Blind”
Yellow Red Sparks: “A Play to End All Plays”
Random comments. If you read my blog on Great Northern, you know where I caught Lemon Sun’s set.
I saw Dirty Kings’ last ever set. I didn’t even know in advance that it was their last ever set. Rest in peace, Dirty Kings.
One of the band members from Ex-Gentlemen used to play for my all time favorite local band: Bang Sugar Bang. May they rest in peace, as well.
I caught Mere Mortals at Cinespace. The lead singer was super cool with me when I asked if they had a flier or card with their myspace info. They didn’t have anything so he just gave me a CD single for free.
Whenever I hear Underwater City People’s Jennifer, I always find myself reminiscing.
I caught the back end of Dusty Rhodes and the River Band’s set during the Local Natives residency at Silverlake Lounge. When they had their residency recently at Silverlake Lounge, I had to check them out. I’m happy I did.

Old Man Markley - ”Rollin in My Sweet Baby’s Arms”
Prizzy Prizzy Please - “Ride the Love Bullet”
Editors Note: Here is an interview Prizzy Prizzy Please did prior to us catching them at Juanita’s (in Highland Park) where we caught them with our friends of Pu$$y Cow and Spider Problem – I highly recommend catching them live, they have amazing energy and their drummer goes insane on the kit
Pu$$y Cow - “BernNadette”
Spider Problem - ”Deadwalk”
The Temper Trap ” Science of Fear”
I just discovered the band Local Natives. I love them so much that I’m listing two of their songs. Prizzy Prizzy Please is a Bloomington, Indiana band that toured through Los Angeles recently. Army Navy’s song is on the Nic and Nora’s Infinite Playlist soundtrack.
