Velociraptor (20:30)
Jacco Gardner (21:15) The Wytches (22:15) Temples (00:00) Merchandise (1:00) Palma Violets (02:00) Read More Velociraptor I thought I mentioned Velociraptor before, in one of our "When Animals Attack" series, but I guess we have not.
This Australian twelve-piece (yes, you have read that right), will be playing a few dates at the Great Escape Festival …

What a night! Velociraptor is the new version of the Hives from Aussieland. 12 people on stage. Completely mad! The drummer was standing on top of mountain playing drums then bounced around to a few songs. They started the set with their hit "Hey Suzanne" and kept the fast pace throughout the whole set.
Temples were surprising solid. They reminded me of Kasabian and Pink Floyd. Lead singer sported the old-school curly brown Afro 60's look and the other members looked like the Davies brothers from the Kinks. The only downfall to the set, is that they didn't play "We Were Children."
Merchandise, from Tampa, Florida, also rocked the house and started the moshing, crowd surfing, and questionable stage dancing.
Jacco Gardner was Great! Wytches were awful!
