Higher! Higher! Higher!
If you haven't heard of the Grates by now, I think it's about time you did. The backdrop of friday nights show was nostalgic of a 5th year old's birthday party, balloons and all (but without the cake). Pae was quite the gymnast, kangaroo, performer and vocalist that night. The enthusiasm and energy reminded me of the duracell bunny, or maybe it was those animal noises. It shows when you've been touring with We Are Scientists, the Go! Team and Sleater-Kinney (just to name a few). I remember a somewhat sedate Pae and a sick Alana, the last time I caught them and boy, have they come far. Photos from friday night are here:
