LONG LIVE THE PARLOR MOB!

Hey all!  Welcome back to the bones where we attempt to inject a little badass into bloggery every day.  (Trust me, it’s difficult even for our leading scientists!)

A while back, probably about a year now, an awesome band from New Jersey managed to make their way to the Machine Shop.  The band was called The Parlor Mob and I haven’t heard about them since.  If you get the chance to see them, jump on it!  The band just echoes Led Zep, and unlike a lot of other bands, they do it well.  I’m not talking about cover songs or anything crazy like that, I mean that this band has some amazing vibes.  The lead singer actually sounds a lot like Robert Plant.  One of the best draws to this band, apart from the singer whom I could go on and on about, is actually their drummer.  Right?  A band with an impressive drummer?  How cool.  When I saw them they opened for Theory of a Deadman and these guys blew the pants off of the band that they were opening for.  Yeah, I’ve spoken to a lot of Theory fans and I know how tenacious they are, but I kid you not, had they been there even they would have admitted that The Parlor Mob put on a way better show than Theory this time around.  It’s a pleasure to watch this group and I’d love to see them around Michigan again!  Do yourselves a favor and give them a listen!

I’d also like to take a couple of seconds to thank all of you who messaged me about that annoying man on the CMU campus that I talked about yesterday.  Brought a smile to my face to know that I’m not the only one ranting about him.
