Little Lost & Innocents, Lights & Siren, Karmella’s Game and Kinetiks at the Riot Room

A hodgepodge of local rock hit the Riot Room last Friday night, and the ol’ Wayward Son was in top form, taking photos, throwing back PBRs and other intoxicating things, saying and doing ridiculous things he doesn’t remember, and, you know, the usual live-music-joint shenanigans. If you were there, you better make sure you’re not in this slideshow. Whoa, nelly.

Go Go Gadget Slideshow: Last Friday at the Riot Room.

Notes:

Four bands made for a hefty bill, and I was sore disappointed when I arrived during the tail end of the Little Lost & Innocents‘ set, which had begun at 9:45. This fairly new garage-pop, Nuggets-stylin’ group has good local buzz and recently landed the opening slot for the Black Hollies at the Record Bar on May 12. Won’t wanna miss that. The Little Lost ones seem to be part of a growing garage a’ go-go (or whatever you wanna call it) scene here in KC, which includes the Pink Socks and the Black Tarantulas and the currently in-flux Rich Boys. And that’s fine with me. Bring that shit on.
