[ATTENDED: November 7, 2016] Marge
Two bands opened for Toronto’s Dilly Dally. The posted start time was 8:30, but I gather Marge went on at 8:15. Traffic made me a few minutes late, so I really only saw one song from Marge.
And it was really good. It started off with the guitarist on the right joking about her Lake Wobegone Shirt. And then she started playing and singing. The song (no idea what it was called) began slow and fuzzy shoe-gazey. It stayed that way for a few minutes and then the singer started pogoing a bit and then the song started rocking with some good screams from the lead singer. Just as I started to get a quick video for reference, the song ended and so did their set.
I have checked out their bandcamp site and I love that their slogan and first single name is “we’re figuring it out” because it really sounded like they were. But between that 2013 release and their new album Bruise Easy from 2016, Marge made huge strides and their sound is really dynamic and interesting. I wish I had seen more of their set. (more…)
