Rock 'n' Roll Ruckus


(Needles logo from MySpace)

Saturday night at The Taphouse in Ghent, a bunch of punky, garagy bands played in honor of Nathan Berger, who celebrated his birthday with a metric crap-ton of rock. I only got to witness The Needles from Wilmington, N.C., who were truly excellent. But if this kind of sleazy, three-chord rock appeals to you ( and why wouldn't it?) sample some of the night's festivities here. I should note that Gina Dalmas also performed and was an exception to all the punk rawk rowdiness. She's doing a sort of honky-tonk swing thing that's also pretty fun.
