Lots of pictures here – give them time to load.

Kenny on guitar amidst all the smoke and fog.

A hell of a show from a couple of Hongdae veteran bands and a new one worth checking out. Starting off the night at DGBD was Slaughterhouse Jive – a relatively new band covering some classic punk and hard-rock bands.

Lead singer Doug – the man probably worked off a few hundred calories during their set.

Mark on bass – formerly part of Shotgun Mascara.

Tim on lead guitar – the newest member of the band.

Doug’s a versatile singer – and very photogenic. DGBD helps, of course, with all the lights, though I wish there was a little less smoke…

Next up: the Frills and Thrills Burlesque Troupe:

Good thing she had that book of Le Sex.

A sweet smile.

A special treat – a slinky dress and a sexy singer.

Work that hair.

 

Mirrorhouse‘s lead singer Vadim trying a different genre – At the Copa / Copacabana, courtesy of Barry Manilow. It’s one of Burlesque’s biggest dance numbers, and they pulled it off nicely.

As Mirrorhouse got setup, I noticed the wide variety of buttons and knobs.

Vadim, slightly de-saturated – if only he’d try that halo on.

Nick on keys and backup vocals.

Keegan on guitar.

 

In retrospect, next time I will pack my earplugs – the raw decibels were enough to make my ears ring for a couple days.

Pinnacle and the Antidote came on next, but I needed to leave and tend to my stomach, which was trying hard to process that last rum and coke In a word, a rockin’ show – no weak spots, and no filler to report.
