Rating: 4 out of 5Breeders rocked!
by stevezep19 on 8/10/09Duck Room at Blueberry Hill - St LouisThis was my first time here at the Duck Room at Blueberry Hill. I was very impressed with the venue and I really liked how close I was to the band. The opening band was a somewhat unknown band called Times New Viking. They were somewhat of a mix between Sonic Youth meets Breeders meets Nirvana. Very eclectic and they were a great opener for the Breeders. The Breeders played several songs that I was not familiar with, I for one have not been following as close as I did back in the 1990s. The songs that I did remember were 'Last Splash,' 'Iris,' and of course they did an excellent cover of 'Happiness is a Warm Gun.' All in all I was impressed with the show and I was kicking myself for not being more familiar with the band. Regardless it was an excellent show, even if you aren't familiar with their catalog I would highly recommend this show!
