MKHstudios Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 What a great night! Aside from being in an IHEG venue - which I try to avoid. Three solid bands in the club room at Pearl Street : Ice Palace, Cloud Cult, and Margot & the Nuclear So and So's. I mainly went to see Cloud Cult but was pleasantly surprised by the entire bill. some highlights from Cloud Cult's 60 minute set: No One Said It Would Be EasyPretty VoiceTornado Lessons2x2x2Take Your Medicine If you get a chance you should go check out this show...Boston and New Haven next.

explodo Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I missed them (Cloud Cult) when they came around here recently, but they are something else live. Last time I saw them, about a year ago in Chicago, they said they were going on hiatus. Glad it didn't happen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
curlygirljes Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I'm looking forward to Cloud Cult's Mpls show next month. Got a chance to see their new DVD, if you're interested at all in the band, it's an excellent look into how they came to be. Good stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Glad you had a good time, dude! And glad you liked the Margots. I've got a ticket to see the Brooklyn show on Thursday, I think. Lookin' forward to seeing the Cloud Cults. Any idea if they and the Margots are alternating as "headliners" on this tour (even though each band plays about an hour set)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs. Peel Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Why do you try to avoid IHEG clubs? I think they're the best places around to see shows! Do they still do the live painting during the shows? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
solace Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Cloud Cult are not only a great band, but some of the nicest folks around too. glad to see 'em getting some love on here. Ice Palace are a really good local Mpls band as well and i've always dug Margot. bummed our show here on 5/2 isn't w/ them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs. Peel Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 The only thing I knew about them was the Esurance commercial, which I actually like quite a bit. After reading about them though, I think I'm going to hit the New Haven show tomorrow night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wendy Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I always enjoy seeing Margot etc. They are really fun. I knew nothing about them a couple years ago when thisyearsgirl and I went to see Rogue Wave and Margot etc were opening ... what an amazing surprise! So many musicians crammed on stage performing well-written pop songs. Loved it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
