Swearing At Motorists

june 9, 2000 - toronto, on - El Mocambo

Looking straight out of an early ‘70s TV show, the emaciated needle-nosed singer of Swearing At Motorists was surely the most energetic, eccentric, crazy and entertaining artist to cross the Canadian border. The dynamic duo from Dayton, Ohio consisted of only guitar and a drummer yet they rocked the crowd very hard, working with a blue-collar-like spirit. Their numbers were cleverly conceived to contain moments of quiet soul, angst and then catharsis, like early Elvis Costello on speed. These two are the new superheroes. They fucking kicked ass.
