Be Your Own Pet at Knitting Factory
I saw Be Your Own Pet at the Knitting Factory Wednesday night. Those Nashville kids have got it going on. You remember in high school when you went over to your friend's garage to listen to their punk band practice at an insanely loud volume. Well this show was kind of like that, except these youngsters are good enough to headline a show (all ages of course) at the Knitting Factory. Their songs have really catchy hooks like "You got me on a leash, a damn, damn, leash, and its hard enough to be my damn self." Jemina, the singer, delivers those lyrics at a high voltage. She reminds me of what would happen if you stuck a fork in a socket. She, nor the band, did not stay still for one second—hence, the blurry photos. A good show and it was over at 11 too, so I made it home just before curfew.
