Review by Heather

I missed the supposedly good local band, The Thrushes (?). The second band was not impressive at all. I normally don't listen to lyrics, but I couldn't ignore how much the singer was a hater. No, literally, "Don't you know how much I hate you?" and "I just don't care anymore" and "Help me." Anyway, the Raveonettes were hot. The crowd at Ottobar loved them. Not sure why I thought the place was stuffy tonight. Everyone just kinda stood there, and that is weird to me. The crowd was mixed in age, which is nice. I think I poked some guy behind me in the eye throwing my hands up. Okay, so, yay Raveonettes, and eh Ottobar.
