Stereolab at The Glasshouse

I think the Glasshouse in Pomona is my favorite venue! I've seen some great bands there (Gene, The Go!Team, Supergrass) and there's never more than 300 people there. A nice little venue and only 20 miles east of LA...

Stereolab were mostly excellent - playing a mix of oldies ('Ping Pong' etc) along with the (minor 7th) heaven that is new cd 'Chemical Chords'... My only complaint was the 3 prog jams, escpecially the 20 minute final song, the last 15 of which chugged along on one chord - paradoxically from a band that specializes in unusual and inventive chord sequences...
