Although packed shows at the Record Bar tend to be uncomfortable, I was super glad that a big crowd turned out for VHS or Beta. I’ve been into the Louisville, Kentucky, hipsters since 2004, when I interviewed them in Omaha for CreemMagazine.com. The profile seems to have disappeared from Creem’s Web site, but I’ll never forget dining with the ultra cool, black-clad VoB crew in a kitschy Bohemian restaurant in Omaha where the waitresses wore traditional Czech-ish costumes and just about every menu item consisted of meat ‘n’ gravy.
