Bear Hands at Johnny Brenda's

So, in the last of the lineup of Sat Jan 17th, was Bear Hands. Or rather, they were the cheese in the Here We Go Magic/Department of Eagles sammich. This was the last night of their tour and I have to say they did seem a little beat and were vocal about being glad to head back home that night. Their music typically has a lot of energy, and while they weren't exactly lolling around the stage, I'd have rather seen them when they may have been a little less sick of their set.

My friend Katie made me laugh when she noted that she also doesn't think she's ever seen a band composed of guys who, from their physical appearance, look less likely to be friends. Like, how did the dude with dreads, the tattooed rocker, the indie guy and the drummer from a Vampire Weekend spinoff decide to hang out?
