After many missed opportunities, I have finally gotten a chance to see one of DC’s best! The group plays like a rollicking bar band without the abrasive chicken wire for protection. The guys played to a hillbilly crazed crowed and the stage was smaller than the band. It contained them a bit, but the guys played a very appropriate Tom Petty cover, American Girl, that sent everybody into a mass frenzy. The night was a resounding success and make sure you catch TUS on tour.
