The show lived up to the description of their shows as "Punk Cabaret." The full album was played interspersed with vignettes of the life of Peter Lorre and some his contemporaries. I'd try and describe what this band does, but I think its better left to others. Ben Sisario profiled the band and this show in this 'New York Times' piece on 1/9/09.
A shorter, more raucous set followed "Addicted to Bad Ideas." The crowd surfing and stage diving intensified and the fans had Webster Hall's floor moving for much of the set. Take a look at the rest of my photos to get a sense for the drama of the evening.
