Conner / Ghosty
When: Sunday, Dec. 31, 2006, 10 p.m.
Where: The Jackpot Music Hall, 943 Mass., Lawrence
Cost: Not available
Age limit: 21+
Categories: Rock
Description: If you're even remotely interested in the local music scene you know these two bands are two of Lawrence's most talented and consistently entertaining bands.
Equal parts Iggy Pop, The Clash and the Velvet Underground, Conner's songs have the distinct ability to wedge themselves in your brain like a needle in Keith Richards' forearm. Live, the band is a raucous riffage-machine driven by the nimble fingers of lead guitarist Tom Wagner and the sounds-before-words vocals of James Duft.
The veteran five-piece Ghosty utilizes two guitars, keyboards and harmonies to flesh out Andrew Connor's Elliott Smith/Big Star/Todd Rundgren-inspired pop songs. Fresh tunes available at the show via the new "No Nothing Tour EP."
