Review
The Proletariat is a small club, the main room is about 40'x30'. Danny and the Nightmares opened with a 30 minute set (torrent here). Sparklehorse took the stage at 11. The club was packed and really hot. Linkous had 2 mics, a normal sized one and a thinner one that treated his vocal with distortion. The band had some rough edges, this being only their 4th show of the tour, but overall they were great and looked to be having a great time in spite of the heat. The club has AC blowing directly on stage and the wind was blowing Linkous' hair around to great affect throughout the show. Linkous was pretty reserved but encouraged the audience to sing along and apologized for playing new songs (there are 4 songs from the new release here).
