Bumbershoot Day 3: Motopony, Fly Moon Royalty, Phantogram, Lemolo, You Am I, Lauren Jackson
September 12th, 2011
Like Polonius, I will be brief.
Motopony: Good enough to make me think about seeing them again. (Photo by Sandy Lane)
Fly Moon Royalty: I liked them early on in their mellow tunes. Not as much later on with the dancing numbers and the two dancing women. (Photo by Sandy Lane)
My Goodness: I’ve seen these guys twice now, and without a bass player, I just sense something missing. They rock, but they just don’t quite get all the way there for me. (Photo by Sandy Lane)
Phantogram: Pretty damn awesome in the KEXP Lounge. (Photo by Sandy Lane)
Lemolo: This is the mellower end of what I want a band with no bass player to sound like. I dig these two women a lot. (Photo by Sandy Lane)
You Am I: From the beer garden, they sounded good. I even wrangled my way backstage to get a photo of them. Being an Aussie like the band, Lauren Jackson was backstage too, but I didn’t bother her for a photo, and that’s probably for the best as I’d had just enough Shock Top in me that if I spoke to her I might have gone the fool route to be so bold as to ask her out for a drink.
Phantogram: Good enough to see twice in one day
Dave.
More photos coming to our Facebook page soon.

Lemolo has the sound, caught their act at Bumbershoot and they were crowd pleasers. Going to LA to see them play in October as i can’t get enough.
