[DID NOT ATTEND: April 24, 2025] Magic Sword / Mega Ran / Starbenders
I’ve seen Magic Sword twice and I love their instrumental fake-soundtrack music. Everything about them is super fun. I would see them any time they came around. But at the same time they’re kind of a second tier show for me. Like if something else came along I might go to that instead? So Cheekface the same night was a tough call.
But I wound up staying home instead of having to decide.
Mega Ran according to Wikipedia,
Raheem Jarbo (stage names Mega Ran and Random) is an American underground nerdcore rapper, chiptune DJ, and record producer. In February 2015, he changed his stage name to Mega Ran, removing Random from any releases.
Mega Ran keeps popping up at shows around here and I’d really like to see him once. I hope it works out.
Starbenders sound like they’re a mid 80s hair metal band. And I think that’s the point? They seem to be considered a glam rock band. I almost feel like they’re a joke band but I don’t think they are. I’m probably not the right audience for them.
