What can I say? A show by Ted Leo + Pharmacists any time of year is a good thing, but to catch them on Halloween Eve was
that much more special. We half-accidentally ran into Bones, a surgeon friend of The Lady Doc, who turned out to be a big music fan and cool concertgoer. Anyway, Ted Leo (who was born on the 11th of September) was in his usual peppy mood and this flowed right into the music: lots of energy and fun, and crowd interaction about birthday memories and 80s fashion. They played a lot of what I wanted to hear and made the whole thing happen with Leo's tried-and-true DIY methodology. But there was just one thing: we couldn't get over how no matter how crazy and intricate the drums sounded, the
drummer (Chris Wilson) hardly moved.
