On Thursday October 2nd Agent Orange played the 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis.
The Architects, from Kansas City, opened with a 10 song, 40 minute set of rowdy raucous rock and roll. Several times they expressed how appreciative they were to be opening for Agent Orange, idols of their own formative years, and backed it up with a high energy set. Few in the audience seemed to know them at the start, but warmed to them considerably.
The Architects' latest release is Border Wars: Episode II, a comic book illustrated by Mallory Dorn with CD, was officially released September 9, 2014 on Exodus Entertainment. The band will support Agent Orange on the road throughout the month of October.
When Agent Orange took the stage things took a decidedly more punky turn. Their set included many of their classic songs, together with several covers including songs by Johnny Rivers ("Secret Agent Man"), Jefferson Airplane ("Somebody to Love"), The Who ("Shakin’ All Over"), and the Dead Kennedys.
The audience responded with major enthusiasm, though some of the usual punk show activities were rendered somewhat more dangerous by the lack of crowd density. That didn’t keep people from trying, though. Happy to report that none of the sometimes scary-looking falls, crashes, and tumbles seemed to result in serious injury. Agent Orange included two encores in their super high energy hour and a quarter set. They were clearly into it, and so was the audience.
