Nurses opened for The Brunettes (new zealand) and Throw Me the Statue (Seattle) @ The Cavern last night. Nurses are pretty new, but IMHO they should have received just as much if not more hype than bands like Girls or Wavves, and they probably deserve the hype. The band took a while to sound check, between the 3 key boards, the guitar, and the synths they used to record and loop back their music during their songs, it took them around 45 minutes to set up . I was disappointed that they only played 5 songs, about 25 minutes in all. 5 great songs, mind you, but I really had hoped they would’ve played a longer set.
I can see the appeal in The Brunettes and Throw Me the Statue, but their music didn’t speak to me as much as Nurses did. I suppose it’s all psychological… different backgrounds and all that molds ones reception of sensual stimuli, and it can’t be explained.
Anyhow here are the setlists plus some youtubes from the shows:
