Lost City Radio in WeHo

I went out to see Lost City Radio perform at The Cat Club in West Hollywood this weekend. I like seeing good local talent live and this band is really well-put-together. The only thing I think they need to improve on is to turn up the lead's mike a bit.

Lost City Radio is mainstream rock and roll without any "alternative" or sub-genre label tacked onto it. Combined with the good fortune of being leagues better than the band that came on before and after them, they had the entire bar crowd involved that night. Their lead is pretty relaxed and works audiences very well.

After the show we crawled across the alley to Frankie & Johnnie's New York Style Pizza for . . .beer and pizza! The walls are covered with notes and signatures of B-list celebrities and the pizza really hit the spot. The server we had was really nice but it seemed that some of the other servers there could probably work on their hospitality skills.
