Army of Me, Bowery Ballroom, NYC. May 29, 2008.
Nearly 10 years ago I went to the TisWas party at Don Hill’s with my friend Mikey Way and we saw this band called Cactus Patch from DC. The thing that surprised us the most about Cactus Patch was that they were one of the only bands we’d ever seen at this party by this point (1999) that was actually really good. So I joined their mailing list and a year or two later they changed their name to Army of Me, and I remain on their mailing list to this day.
So last night it was such a joy to go to see them at Bowery Ballroom, which is one of my favorite venues in NYC. I took a bunch of photos and so here they are:
Then I went to The Annex to celebrate Nick Snow’s graduation. His parents were even there and they’re really incredibly good looking.
Here is Nick (on the far right), with Mike, his cute friend, and his brother Andrew:
