Life.in.Film.(LiVE).2015

Life.in.Film.2015

Bootleg Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)

Tuesday.August.18th

   I arrived at 9p and the first band went on.  I noticed that the bass guitarist (Dominic Sennett) of Life in Film was walking around the venue with his hoodie up.  Funny.  Was he trying to hide?  Anyhow, you can count the people inside the Bootleg (30).  

  The second band (Midnight Faces) went on and they where really good.  I enjoyed them so much that I decided to look them up and down load some of there songs.  To me, they sounded better live from what I heard on iTunes.  Watch out for them.

  Life in Film went on and they killed it!  Ten more people showed up and one exited fan who drove all the way up from San Diego.  He was singing along to almost every song with his beer up in the air like he was at a pub rooting for his favorite soccer team.  If you haven't heard of them yet, down load or physically get the album, "Here it Comes" (AWESOME!!!).  Highly recommend it and see them live!!!
