In the Shade: Teenage Kicks

The only promise Teenage Kicks didn't live up to was the time limit. (We're glad they took longer.) The group's unrefined three-piece punk was a lesson in crowd involvement. In between songs, drummer Jon "I'm totally a" Baldwin told the audience to move closer and bassist Stewart Anderson and singer/guitarist Kirke Campbell pushed the monitor into the crowd. Nobody retreated and the Kicks continued on with their unrefined, Jam/Dead Boys inspired punk.
