Someone Still Loves You, Boris Yeltsin @ Gramercy Theatre

Drummer, Phil Dickey, likes to spice things up a bit. After he switched position, mid-gig, with guitarist John Robert Cardwell, Dickey jumped off the stage onto the security platform in front. Only his feet got stuck in the cables at bit…
“That was thoroughly rock and roll,” said Deanna Wallach, photographer with the Cinematics who high-fived him after he plugged all the cables back in. “Really that was stellar. He’s amazing. ”
Right on! They are all amazing, they’re the “we-do-our-own-thing” kind of band, and though we don’t necessarily understand why they do it, we love it! Just like we loved “Pangea” and “Boring Fountain.” The overall vibe of their performance was a more chilled out, “friends-rocking-in-their-basement” kind of gig. They started playing “Oregon Girl” immediately after the sound check. They just blew the crowd away. The rotating band finished off the performance with the addictive riffs of “Ocean-O.” The next time they will come to New York, these Missourians might just be their own main show…
