Haha I think this group was a bit necessary since some of the members are in it. Plus they ROCK! Sounds about right!

Has anyone been to any of there shows yet? I haven't been able to, but if they come to the West, particularly Seattle or Portland maybe even Canada I will be able to go.

Oh man that sucks! Can you edit them to make them a bit brighter? How were they? Was it anything like a Monkeys show?

i've been to.. 4 or 5 so far. the guys are really great and it's been awesome having the opportunity to see this new project of theirs.

I mentioned it on Spencer's site but, here goes  again -- for this awesome threesome to form this band, was one of the best ideas ever.  Haven't had a chance to see any of their shows live, but the cds alone, plus the vids well, the music Ben, Jake & Ben are generating is just - WOW...

i AGREE, lori. somehow, they just struck a chord in me, all with skyscraper. everything thereafter just seems like an awesome bonus. i really do hope they're able to play more shows eventually out where y'all are. they're just great live.

4 or 5 times? wow! what shows have you been to? i havent been able to go to any yet, but hopefully soon i will. at least i'll get to watch them live through the ustream for sbl. that will be cool. skyscraper is probably my favorite so far. monsters is great too. how is the vibe? i see it being a pretty chill show.

yes, ma'am! went to the tour kick-off on 3/10 in LA. then long beach, anaheim, LA again.. so 4 so far. i'll be seeing them this weekend, and then PERHAPS at the end of the month when they hit up LA (again).

 

yeah, video is certainly better than nothing, i say. i love monster -- dinosaur is really neat, a classic 50's vibe to it. it's a great vibe seeing them.. it's very laid back, the shows are all intimate and tiny compared to the behemoth monkey shows have become, but that just means more dancing room for us, haha. jake really tears it up live and switches up his solos at times. i wish he'd play the guitar on skyscrapers, though -- he generally takes to the base so that really important element of the song isn't there, but makes for a nice switch up!

I was able to go to their second show they had when they were in Mississippi; I knew they were gonna be awesome but they are so much more than that!  There wasnt but like maybe 10 people there that night which benefited me..  I was able to get to talk to them and get pics.. The guys are so laid back and totally sweet and down to Earth.  It was one of the best shows I have been to and cannot wait to see another one =]  I will post my pics as soon as I get on my laptop (at work right now).

 

They didnt play but a couple of the songs that they have out now because they were just getting started, but they could have sat there and sang one word and it would have still rocked!
