Videos from last week: No Action / Treehouse / Driftwood

Crappy videos from an all ages show last weekend with No Action, Bears, Treehouse and Driftwood at the Brisbane Hotel. My video of Bears stuffed up sorry.

These guys were alright, they're a young Rosny College band. The singer has a nice New Zealand-ish voice which gives them a bit of identity already (this was only their second show). The drummer shouldn't sing though; it doesn't compliment the lead vocals at all, nor contrast with it in any interesting way. More annoying than anything.

Treehouse played some new songs, this one is called "Drunk Elk". They've recorded this plus a bunch of others for an upcoming cassette/release which should be fun. Their set was mostly new songs - less lo-fi punkish and more like the song above. They still played "Party", though.

No Action are from Adelaide and they make emo music, I think? I don't know these genres very well. They went down pretty well with the small crowd and sold a few 7"s.
