In-store: PS I Love You

PS I Love You

Soundscapes. Tuesday, October 26, 2010.

Well, I didn't need to go to this one, given that I was heading down to The Garrison after this for the full gig. But that's okay. I always enjoy stopping in at Soundscapes, where you can get good and close to the artists.

Personnel-wise, there's not that far that PS I Love You can strip down, with Paul Saulnier (guitar, bass pedals, vox) and Benjamin Nelson (drums) being the full complement. And — within the limits of the store's PA system — they didn't cut back on the wailing rock volume they work with. So instead, we got a compressed version of the set that band would be playing later. They lead off with the opening trio of songs from the newly-released Meet Me at the Muster Station before switching things up with non-album single "Starfield". The quick set closed out with "Butterflies & Boners", making for a crunchy little quarter-hour taster of what would be to come later in the evening.

Listen to a track from this set here.
