What a fucking full sensory experience! I haven’t had so much fun at a show in a long time. The line-up was Finger on the Pulse, Burt Fox, Telephoned, Cage and his band, and Cubic Zirconia. I thought I knew what I was in for, but honestly I had no idea. I went to this show under the guise of a hip-hop/dance performance, but what I got was so much more. There was a sexy dance troupe (LICK) performing to the music the DJs spun between sets. All things considered, it was the most well-oiled show I’ve been to! The flow from act to act was smoother than silk. The entire show was a celebration of the release of Cubic Zirconia’s raging second single, “Josephine.” It’s too bad PartyFM isn’t around anymore because I could totally hear the track being played on there. Telephoned performed some wicked dance renditions of pop songs, that I could totally also hear on PartyFM. Cage performed with his band which this night consisted of the super fun to watch and ridiculously talented Cardboard City All-Stars: F. Sean Martin (House of Blow, XO Skeletons, Ex-Hatebreed) on guitar, Joshua “Jarvis” Morgan Holden (Head Automatica, ex-American Nightmare/Give Up The Ghost) on bass, DJ Chauncey Johnson (Yak Ballz, House of Blow, XO Skeletons), Daryl Palumbo (Glassjaw, Head Automatica, House of Blow, United Nations, Geometry) on guitar (and some vox), and Nick Hook Conceller (Cubic Zirconia, ex-Men Women & Children) on keys. I snagged some shit video clips of “Eating It’s Way Out of Me,” “It’s The 80’s Again,” “Too Heavy For Cherubs,” “I Found My Mind in Connecticut,” “Ballad of Worms,” “Captain Bumout,” “Depart From Me,” “I Never Knew You,” “Shoot Frank (remix),” “Look At What You Did.” Cubic Zirconia were way too much fun. I couldn’t stop dancing! And that carried right on to the afterparty next door.
