Elvis Perkins in Dearland at State Theatre (in 300 words or less)
Posted by Van McCourt on Mon, Jun 15, 2009 at 3:51 PM
Okay, Elvis Perkins in Dearland is probably a good choice musically to open for Bon Iver. The band is low key, but not low energy, and they built the show up well, especially having Bon Iver come on stage for the last song. That really hyped up the crowd. They started off slowly, though, and I wasn't sure I was going to catch on. My notes through the first three songs read like strange musings: "Elvis can somehow pull off white jeans & a jingle bell necklace..." "Trombone guy has played like 4 instruments already, is hot, but has a huge hole in the crotch of his jeans..." Song number four picked up the pace and I got more involved. This is another really talented group of musicians, several multi-instrumentalists, and one local guy named David who was someone's uncle and did a nice job even though he stuck out like a sore thumb (well, he was older and not dressed like he was from 1974). Anyway, they were a good time. When they successfully threw in a gospel tune that led into a sort of doo-wopish buddy holly kind of jam, things really got interesting. I enjoyed Elvis Perkins in Dearland, and they really seemed to be having fun, and it was sort of a love fest with Bon Iver (who said they were all now the best of friends). Happily ever after at The State. (Sigh.) (Photo of Perkins by Sam Goresh)
