[ATTENDED: July 26, 2021] The Linda Lindas [postponed from July 21, 2022]
I was excited to take my daughter to see The Linda Lindas since she is the same age as they are. She didn’t really know their music (I heard about them when they played at a library in LA), but I thought she’d enjoy the show and the venue.
But when the show was postponed (it was pretty cool that it was only postponed five days), the new date was on a night that she has a 4H commitment. So she couldn’t go.
So, I went since I wanted to see them while they were still buzzed about. If you know them at all, you know that they are four teenaged girls who made a great punk song called “Racist Sexist Boy” about their experiences with a racist sexist classmate. They did a pandemic-era show at the L.A. library and made huge news.
The foursome are great musicians, they write rocking, relevant (to them) punk songs and, most important, they have a ton of fun. At the time of our show, the drummer, Mila de la Garza, was possibly not yet 12. She played a solid drum, sang her heart out, drew a cat under her nose like a mustache and had a great time. (more…)
