Saw The March Violets with opening band Pawns yesterday. Pawns were decent and The March Violets were awesome, sort of. They have two singers and the guy was obviously not able to be nearly animated as he was 30 years ago. The woman was amazing, still had all of it. Some of the songs they did, though, were off of their latest album which came out about two years ago maybe 20-25 years after they stopped. Its was not very good.
The bassist for Pawns was wonderful to watch. She has great straight black hair and was slightly shaking it while rocking to the music. While listening to Pawns I hear Joy Division, Corpus Deliciti, and Danse Society without synthesizers. The March Violets are the March Violets, pioneers of goth and all that.
