The Puritanicals at ex-Gabes' Oasis

I made a hasty retreat from work this past Tuesday to drive to IA city to catch my younger cousin's band play a rock show at the hole-of-a-bar which was formerly known as Gabe's Oasis (where Roscommon and I have previously seen Lucky Boys Confusion). After some conversation and a pitcher or two, Scheib took the stage with his bassist and drummer. The show was raw and good. Something like the Horseshoe Spatulas meet Nirvana with a screamo twist. Scheib impressed even me with a pretty kickass solo or three. A very Cobain-ish finish complete with the drum kit getting kicked over with mike playing as loud as possible and breaking a string. Better than sitting at home watching TV for sure.
