Friday night I was entertained by the man with the itchy legs and ignited a rock crush with a set of twins.

A small group of friends and I decided to head to the Turf Club on Friday to catch Tim Fite and the Watson Twins perform. We arrived early enough to grab a table right up in front. They were great seats except for the Antarctic air blowing at gale force speeds right at us from the air conditioner.

A local opener took the stage first treating us to some unimpressive banjo playing and some uncomfortable between song banter. As soon as her set was done the show began.

Tim Fite started off walking the whole bar, shaking people’s hands and thanking them for coming before taking the stage. The stage was set with a large wooden light up boombox and a projector screen. Tim put on a very entertaining show, fun songs, funny stories such as “let’s go outside and stab a mother fucker”, and great visuals. He was inclusion rock at it’s best.

Next up the headliners, The Watson Twins. After listening to their album I was expecting a pretty mellow show which would not have been a good fit following Tim Fite. They started their set with their upbeat single “How am I to be” and then kept the set rocking from there. The highlight of their set was their hauntingly beautiful cover of The Cure’s “Just Like a Dream.”

After the Watson’s finished up Mary and I headed back to the merch table to have them sign our CD and thank them for the show. Mary ended up hitting it off with one of them and chatted with her for a good 5-10 minutes. They both seemed so nice, almost too nice.
