On Saturday night, The Asteroids Galaxy Tour played a free set at the Tribeca Grand Hotel. Part of a party thrown by GBH and advertised on Going.com, the house was packed and the energy was high. Alex English and other DJs warmed up the room until the band took the stage around 11:40 pm.
The crowd was a collection of beautiful people, Manhattan’s hip elite (many of whom seemed to be imports from other parts of the world judging by the diverse accents heard chatting about the Danish band), and they were going nuts for the show. If they noticed the sound and technical problems that the band complained of which eventually caused them to cut the set slightly short (at around 40 minutes), they didn’t show it. Crammed in with barely room to breathe, the happy partiers still found a way to throw hands in the air and groove as the jams kept on coming. At one point a rapper even joined the band onstage (White Slug? White Squall?? It was hard to tell but White something for sure)…Most of the band’s album Fruit saw airtime during the set and one-song encore, including favorites like The Sun Ain’t Shining No More, Lady Jesus (see video), The Golden Age, and of course iPod shiller and huge crowd pleaser Around The Bend. When people are shouting lyrics into my ears, I know we’re onto something special here!
