About Me


Who knew a band fronted by a lead singer that is a molecular scientist(if not mistaken) could just kill it so on stage. But get these four boys on stage and something magical happens, as if they are just playing, being themselves and making music to get even the most tired out of their chairs to move and feel good all around. Amen to Vaudeville.
I personally have been mia for the last two weeks. And I probably should not admit this, but just have not been out to listen to live music. Until last night. But boy that did change last night, as with a random Thursday night open, I’d decided to watch Vaudeville at Saint Rocke. Simply put these guys totally crushed their set on the tiny Saint Rocke stage. I am just hoping that the peeps in the audience understood how special of a set it was. Then again, I don’t care what the others thought, I had a shot of music revival shooting through me, all way down my back and into my jimmy leg as I sat there listening to Vaudeville with a large smile on my face.
Vaudeville, the band that can, is Dan, Jacob, Sean, and Jonathan. Jonathan stole the night on the keys. The again, he was matched with a contagious fun and pound the fuck out of our instruments attitude, with Dan, Jacob and Sean along for a fun set. Vaudeville was just that. FUN and dynamite on stage. Watching these guys on stage is like watching four buddies, never farther then a smile away from each other and just being into what they are doing to the very core. Vaudeville performs with such an ease on stage, that I had to just sit back, listen and enjoy. And that is exactly what I’d do as Sean on drums kept my eyes glued to them during their ENTIRE set. The kid is a whiz on the drums, and what a showman.
When they did ” I Get Up,” I thought to myself how many people in this spot could actually keep up with Vaudeville? This band brought me to a happy place last night as I wished their 8 song set had been twice as long. Vaudeville…wow, just something magical about watching a young group as a quartet on stage with the steely keys that just makes me feel that what I witnessed was really fuckin’ cool.
By now whoever reads out stuff, knows one of our major “themes” is how music just cures everything. And after watching an inspired set by Vaudeville, again we are proved right! Dam, just what I needed. Great music and beauty of just being taken away from everything. Thanks guys.
