NOTES:

I gotta be honest, I think the Linda Lindas kicked the most ass this night (sorry Yeah Yeah Yeahs), which really caught me off guard. Going into the night, I was actually most exicted for Japanese Breakfast, but I thought she had the weakest performance, while the Linda Lindas came out on fucking fire and just rolled through 9 songs in the blink of an eye with more and more energy as the set continued.

The band is made up of kids, who I think range from 12 to 18 (most can't even vote yet, as they pointed out), but holy shit can they rip and shred. They mentioned that the dude from Best Coast is their guitar tech, so it's pretty cool to see and hear the influence there (I thought it was obvious). They also mentioned that just a couple of years ago, they were playing some local school cover band contest, which Karen O showed up to, and discovered the band, and here they are a couple years later playing the Hollywood Bowl to a sold out crowd opening for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, that's pretty fucking amazing to me.

I sure hope they start playing more of the LA festival scene in the next few years, because I'll gladly show up to whatever stage and watch them again, as should you.
