[DID NOT ATTEND: November 27 & 28, 2021] The Menzingers / Dirty Nil / Kayleigh Goldsworthy
I saw The Menzingers during Philly Music Fest. I really enjoyed the set but I was in a terribly location and the sound was dreadful. I told myself I wanted to see them again. And there it was, just a month later at Underground Arts!
I couldn’t go on Saturday night because I had tickets to see The Districts, but then they added a 2nd show on Sunday.
But I had just gone to a show on Saturday and the previous week was just chock full of shows. I couldn’t bring myself to go out again. Especially since I had just seen them.
I do hope they come back again soon. And it would be amazing of they could play a small club like that again.
I had not heard of Dirty Nil, but I see they are a band from Hamilton, Ontario, who won the Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year at the Juno Awards of 2017. They play power pop and punk and probably fit perfectly with The Menzingers.
Sunday night’s show also featured Kayleigh Goldsworthy, who I saw recently (at Underground Arts) with Frank Turner. Kayleigh seems to get paired with harder rocking bands (like Tigers Jaw) but when I saw her, she played kind of mellow alt rock. I wonder if she plays with a full band and rocks harder when on a bill like this.
