After spending my Thursday afternoon at the French Legation Museum with Brian, I decided to forgo my only chance to see the Oak Ridge Boys and went to see All Tiny Creatures at Habana Bar. If I could only say one thing about the show I would say it was SUPER FUCKING LOUD. Musically it was pretty much what I expected from hearing the songs on their myspace page - Instrumental music with an electronic slant. Live, they tended to recreate the sound live rather than rely on endless loops out of the laptop. They were definitely lacking in the “stage presence” area, but that’s not really atypical for a band with no singer. Overall, while it didn’t blow me away I’m glad I checked it out even if my ears are still ringing.

A response to Thomas from All Tiny Creatures:
First, thanks for responding; I think it’s only fair to you that I respond to your comment. I said that you guys “might as well be the octopus project” because you’re both in the “electronic/indie/rock instrumental” genre and it was the easiest way for me to express what you sounded like without trying to get too technical. And don’t take that as an insult; I really like The Octopus Project and I have probably seen them around ten times in the past 4 years. You should check them out if you get the chance this week.
And concerning the bio, don’t feel too bad; you’re nowhere near the worst bio. I mean, you could have Catsus’s bio. And you also didn’t make the mistake of putting your phone number on your bio, (though you have to admit that their picture is awesome). I’ve never tried to write a bio before, but given the number of bad bios I’ve read, I suspect that it’s no simple task. For your bio specifically, I would have gone with the quote from The Onion and a band member names. It’s a really good quote and if nothing else, using a quote can’t be considered pretentious (well, less pretentious at least).
I look forward to checking out your show this week.
