Annuals at Webster Hall (10/25/08)
Photos: Jon Klemm
Raleigh’s Annuals have a new record out now called Such Fun (with a genius cover by the late painter Bob Ross) and they were just in town to play a CMJ show at Webster Hall on Saturday (10/25) with Minus The Bear and Sylvie. I really enjoyed Be He Me when it came out and though I think Annuals output has remained consistent since then, including their split EP and new record, for some reason they haven’t quite been able to recapture that lightning in a bottle that surrounded the release of their debut (bloggers are a fickle bunch I suppose). Having said that, judging from the crowd reaction on Saturday night, it looks like they still know how to put on a pretty great show.
