Just gotta give a shoutout to The Bellrays

Their records can be iffy, but for years, The Bellrays have been one of the best live bands out there. Frontwoman Lisa Kekaula is the punkrock answer to Sharon Jones for real and you might know their "Revolution Get Down" track from some car commercial. Anyway I just found their myspace page and they've got a cool live video posted:http://www.myspace.com/thebellrays Make sure to see them when they're in town!That is all.

I haven't listened to it in awhile but I rememeber it being pretty solid. Maybe you meant the entire catalog is iffy?
On a semi-related note, my girlfriend booked them 4 or 5 years ago when they came to town...good show, all 10 people there begged and pleaded for them to come back to town. They came back a few years later and were kind of rock starish and all "where's the coke?"...not that this adversely affects my opinion or should anyone else...I guess that anecdote had no point, it's just what came to my head...anyways, yes, good band.
