[POSTPONED: March 28, 2020] Control Top/Pinkwash/Drill
I saw Control Top open for Ted Leo back in August.
They were incredible, especially considering they are a noise punk band and were opening for a much more sedate headliner.
I have never been so happy to have been there in time for an opener that I’d never heard of before.
I was so excited to see them headlining a show in their hometown.
I had not heard of Pinkwash, but when I looked them up I was immediately intrigued. Pinkwashing is the LGBT variation of whitewashing stories. They are a duo based in Philly and they play loud fast punk with powerful lyrics. I hope I get to see them someday.
Drill is another band from Philly. They have an EP out called This is Not a Drill. It has six songs in about ten minutes. Although they are not hardcore speed punk, they are noisy. I’ll bet they are really fun live.
