The Rosebuds @ Music Hall Of Williamsburg - 18 January 2008

The Rosebuds played the Music Hall Of Williamsburg last Friday night in what was billed as a special "request show"; that is, they offered their fans the chance to request songs to be included in their setlist for both the show they played in Brooklyn AND their other show in the area at Maxwell's on Saturday. Sadly they didn't play their recently released version of "Push It" (posted below), but they did play just about every other song I could've hoped they would. Including personal favorites "Governor's Daughter" and "Hold On To This Coat". Live videos of both of these songs (plus two more live video clips and a few more pictures) can be found after the jump.




Attending a Rosebuds show is a bit of a unique experience in a live concert market such as New York City. As was the case at the last Rosebuds show I went to, The Rosebuds and the audience combined to create an intimate, loose, and fun show full of energy, dancing, and sing-a-longs. It felt more like a large private party for friends of the band than your average Brooklyn rock show. Most probably because there was nothing average about the evening at all. Like the Man Man show from last January, this was a perfect way to kick off the '08 concert season.
