Review:

    Tonight's show was radical! Some experimental performances and a large enthusiastic crowd made for an exciting night of music and fun! Matthew & the gang really got involved with the Groovebox on this show and their comfort level is starting to show through. A very dark, techno version of SWEET DREAMS towards the beginning of the night set the mood for an interesting show to follow! First time on the numbers stage - Ashley O'Neill performed a french song SERRE-MOI with Hazen Rice. Matthew & Hazen did an impressive version of Led Zeppelin's WHOLE LOTTA LOVE. The second set had a kickin' new version of OH GIRL, and the crowd really got moving on club-thumpers such as IRREPLACABLE and 4BIDDEN LOVE. Kacie & Matthew closed the evening with a new arrangement of FIX YOU.
