Photos: The Virgins/Lissy Trullie/Anya Marina – The Annex

Posted on Wednesday 4 February 2009

Last night was only the second show of the year for MoB. We’re itching for the upcoming days of multiple show weeks that’s for sure. The weather certainly kept some people at home last night, but MoB photographer Ed Oliver sucked it up and headed to the Annex to check out The Virgins + Lissy Trullie + Anya Marina. A good night, some bodies moving. If you made the show, drop us a comment letting us know what you thought. I’d also love to hear from anyone that hit up the Majestic last night for The Mighty Underdogs.

Ticket Giveaway :: The Virgins

Posted on Wednesday 28 January 2009

If you like your rock and roll fun, sweaty, and full of good-time party imagery, look no further than NYC’s the Virgins. Coming off as a funkier, groove-ladden Strokes, the Virgins are all about the good times and aren’t afraid to sing about it. With songs like “Private Affair,” “One Week of Danger,” and the “Gossip Girl-”featured “Rich Girls,” the quartet boast fun times via singer Donald Cumming and the sweetest bass lines of today’s so-called “it” bands a la Nick Ackerman. Those who want “music” and “good times” to be experienced simultaneously should direct their attention to the Virgins because these guys don’t hold back the festivities.

The Virgins play The Annex in Madison on Tuesday, February 3rd. Tickets are $10 and Lissy Trullie + Anya Marina support.

MoB Giveaway: We’ve got a pair of tickets to give away to a Muzzle of Bees reader. Drop a comment if you’re interested in seeing the show on us. We’ll select a winner at random.
