It was one heck of a party.

Tanlines at the Whitney Museum

Given how encores are practically compulsory during concerts, it's refreshing to see an actual encore. Tanlines were caught very off-guard when the crowd insisted on one more song after a fantastic set at the Whitney Museum of American Art. I'm glad I caught a summer gig at a museum before the end of the season. (Free museum admission is wonderful, as well.)
Taken for Brooklyn Vegan. DJ/rupture closed the evening. More photos there soon.

Delorean / Tanlines / Glasser at Bowery Ballroom

This weekend, I really liked all things Spanish. I finally took some interest in the World Cup (yeah) and watched the game from the archway under the Manhattan Bridge. The day before, I checked out Delorean's brand of hazy bliss. These Barcelonans know how to put on a show. More Delorean photos at House List, the Bowery Presents music blog.

This was the second time I've seen Tanlines since the Modular x 'Sup Magazine party a while back. I describe them as "triumphant tropical trance™." They were impressive then, but now they really got their act down now.

Anyway, Glasser opened. I was looking forward to this set but just didn't feel it live. Hard to explain. Biting commentary.
