Amo Joy in Athens, Chapel Hill, and NYC

[lou2ser]

I was able to see Indianapolis's Amo Joy twice this weekend, once in
Denton, TX and again the next night in Dallas, TX. They're in the
middle of a mini-tour right now. They were highly recommended to me
by members of Fishboy, and with good reason. Really great poppy
psychedelia with lots of surprise instruments and use of unorthodox
appendages.

squirells from hell Brooklyn, New York

I think they can be talked into another show somewhere along this
path. They seem to just be floating along.

You can check out an unedited MP3 of their Friday night show. By
unedited I mean you'll have to fast forward through the soundcheck,
not that it's hardcore XXX or anything.

went to see them at the go bar, not bad, lots of fun, kitchen sink instrumentation pop with bells, whistles, clappers, flutes, toy pianos and more, at times it was a bit of montreal, red pony clock, and olivia tremor control. mike
