Yesterday Never Tomorrows

The Stills and The Diableros played at Richard's last night. It was one of the premium shows offered this year at New Music West......a festival that no one seems to know anything about, not even the organizers. What? This band is playing? Let me check the schedule. Oh, it's not done yet? They're playing at which venue? What? The place is double booked? Does this go to eleven?



Nonetheless, the two bands playing on this night put on a fun show. The Diableros opened with a solid set that featured upbeat riffs and a solid rock sound.



They reminded me of that band Hep Alien that Lane on Gilmore Girls plays in....with the female asian drummer and the bass player wearing glasses and a vintage sweater. Too bad Gil wasn't there too. The singer/guitarist played a cool 12 string throughout their set.




The Stills played a rockin' set. The indie band from Montreal possesses a big sound on stage. They also bring a lot of energy to their performance and are able to pull out some nice jams.



They played a few new songs from their upcoming release Without Feathers. Some highlights from the 1hr 5min set included Still In Love Song, Love and Death, and Ready For It.
