Dancing On The Ceiling

I can't recall a show where I danced for the whole night. But it happened at Smiling Buddha on Thursday. Though boyBITCH started slow with an a cappella cover of All Is Full Of Love (Bjork), the rest of his set was ironic, upbeat, queer dance music. Similar to Weaves last week, I took immediately to trio Most People. They had a tendency to swap or trade musical instruments. How did they do it? By playing long songs that were a cross between prog-rock and funk. Their set comprised a mere 4 numbers, but they were all fun and catchy. Headliner Animalia was releasing her new album tonight. Backed by a live (and frenetic) drummer, the beefier sound system (compared to her disastrous show at Honest Ed's) highlighted the driving power of her music.
