READING RAINBOW

It was far too cold to do anything last night. Casting aside any better judgement, fans of Philly's latest hometown-favorites-turned-nationally-recognized-sensation, Reading Rainbow, hunkered down in the Danger Danger Gallery for warmth and fuzz. The show, like Reading Rainbow's new 7", also featured a set from Coasting, a similarly dreamy duo whose surf-y tunes often boast some jagged Sleater-Kinneyisms. Reading Rainbow's set tore through most of the tunes from their recently released full length, Prism Eyes. Rob and Sarah hardly stopped to take a breath between songs, though they each seemed to marvel at how each song got faster and faster as the night went on. Maybe that's how they managed to stay warm.
