It's not often that I go to shows like this, so it's a bummer that turnout was so completely horrendous. Hip-hop and electro pop aren't my normal, but as long as they're ethically sound underground groups it's within my realm.
Sneaky Mike - He's a hip-hop/pop artist from Pittsburgh. The only local who actually played. He was EPIC. Just a dude rapping and singing to the music being played on his laptop. He is a complete goofball weirdo. He had a song about being a weirdo, which was fitting. None of his songs were especially good, but the badness of the tracks is what made him great, combined with amazing energy. He would be the Weird Al of pop and hip-hop if Weird Al didn't know he was a goof. Some great things happened during the set like him stripping down, gyrating the mic stand in such comical ways, and getting his hair caught in the mic stand. I really hope he keeps his act going because if I never see him again I'll die a little bit inside.
Brzowski and DJ Halo - DJ Halo is a good DJ. He was spinning stuff with skill using a few cd tables and a laptop. But he wasn't just playing tracks, he was mixing and cutting with skill. I enjoyed watching him for sure. Brzowski is a rapper with a gruff voice. Pretty distinguishable. I didn't so much like when they were paired together because they were putting down some ambient drum and bass tracks and rapping over them, but it was good and entertaining anyway.
Crunk Witch - I'm just a fucking pumpkin. I liked this group. A eletro pop/screamo type group made up of a young husband and wife, which made it all kinds of cute I guess. The singer has very good vocal range. Sweet couple. They were talking to us and gave us free treats because we were 2/3 of the people there. Super nice, and if they come around again it'll be awesome and I'll go see them for sure.
Hi's - My company, the night in general was great, bands/groups
Low's - turnout, that the night had to end.
