The Sketches

Went to see The Sketches last night at Arlene’s Grocery, which made me realize how much I miss going to see bands in small venues. Manny, Charles (brothers), Greg and David put on a good show and I like their sound.

So half of the entertainment value came from the follow-on act, The Cringe. Their claim to fame seems to be solely that the lead singer is married to Rachel Ray. The music was fairly unoriginal but it was the scene that I got a kick out of. All sorts of Ray followers filling the place, with Rachel dancing away right next to me. The ‘highlight’ of the evening was when Ray’s husband smashed his guitar… a completely odd and waste of a good instrument. Rachel’s groupies were attractive though, and the quote by a friend sums it up: “More plastic in them than an ATM”… science at it finest.
