Seeing Magic Kids open for Girls is about the most darling lineup to hit up St. Louis in a while (with the possible exception of GWAR’s annual show at Pop’s…).  Their February 2^nd show at the Gargoyle happily exceeded expectations, even without considering all the hard knocks that Girls, have been through.  (more…)

I walked by the entrance to the Gargoyle a few hours before Dr. Dog took the stage, and I saw trees and ferns being loaded in alongside amps, drums and guitar cases.  I was beginning to suspect that this would be a great show.  Turns out I was right, and the trees, flowers, pink flamingos and other miscellaneous plants and animals covering the stage certainly didn’t hurt – I felt like I was watching a show in a botanical garden.  Or Jurassic Park…
