Live: Twilight Singers @ Webster Hall 5.13.11

I was kinda sorta on the fence about this show, it bring at Webster, but the attraction of going with Alex and the 8:30 start time sweetened the pot considerably. Alex and I grabbed some drinks beforehand and posted up in a pretty damn full room in time for the lights to go down.

Twilight Singers sports a revolving lineup, often sporting the likes of Ed Harcourt, Jeff Klein and/or Joseph Arthur in its ranks. This incarnation featured an amalgamation of Dulli cronies from LA, NYC and New Orleans, and was notable for a pretty aces keys/violin utility guy. The set list (above) is pretty solid, and featured a little AF interpolation to keep everyone on their toes. Still no chance of a Whigs reunion, but a good time and one that had me on the couch as JS-NYC HQ by 10:45, so kudos to all the bridge and tunnel folk who made the evening possible.
