Photos: St. Vincent @ Black Cat
Bobby’s got the recap, here it is in photographic form. My only verbal addition is that this show, while very good, reinforced my impression that the Black Cat is a terrible place for quiet music. If I enjoyed Annie Clark and company’s show last year at the Rock & Roll Hotel more, it was probably in large part thanks to the much rowdier, less intimate atmosphere this time around. If I wanted rowdy I would have gone to Maryland Deathfest (I did, but that’s a different post).
