The second half of the bill last night featured [atg]Ra Ra Riot[/tag], fresh off of their second appearance in the WOXY.com lounge yesterday afternoon. After the tragic loss of drummer John Pike earlier this year, the band have continued on and are getting more and more sure of themselves. They are still out supporting their self titled EP, which is very much worth a purchase if you have not already done so.

They played a rousing set with just enough going on that it was difficult to keep up. Many times I thought they would bump into each other (as evidenced by the above photo) on the small stage but they managed to have a sense for each other physically as well as musically. Here are some photos of the set.

About Joe Long

Joe started ENS in 2003 after most people he wanted to talk to about music were worn thin by his ramblings. The outlet this site provided helped out, and somehow is still going 9 years later. After a four year stint as a WOXY DJ, Joe returned to Cincinnati and continues to pioneer ENS. In addition to the overall look and feel of the site, Joe provides regular reviews, and kinda makes sure this whole thing stays afloat.
