Like the remnants of a hurricane passing through town I went out last night to catch an Australian band still in town from CMJ. Playing at Rothko, The Morning After Girls, a quintet from Melbourne, generated a full guitar sound that gave tribute to the 60’s complete with a sexy girl on the keyboards/guitar/tambourines. Donned all in black, mourning a child that will never be I suppose, the band was a total contrast to the last band from Australia I had seen, the Grates. The Morning After Girls were more polished but the Grates were more colorful. No night would be complete without an appearance from Anton from the Brian Jonestown Massacre, coming on stage at times to talk. I heard all of BJM’s equipment was stolen the other day, stranding them in the city. The set was short but sweet, and featured some soft acoustic songs as well. I took to the streets for a nice walk before I headed back to the better borough, Brooklyn.
