Video #9 (Part One) – “Call It Quits” by Tri-State Conspiracy

We’ve been delaying this reveal for a while but I suppose it’s about time we welcome the ultra talented, ultra unique, only swing/psychobilly/punk/whatever they are band from our area, Tri-State Conspiracy (Jeff Paris, Tom Lawlor, Steve Kerr, Callum Benepe, Anton Alexeev, Craig Baratta, Fernando Leon, Kevin Mechella). First time I heard these guys (and saw them live) was at CBGB’s last ska show ever and I was hooked. Definitely a band to see live – they always have crazy opening acts and have an energy most rock and *”punk” shows/bands today can only dream of having.

Anyway, here’s the first in a series of videos from their live show at Bowery Poetry Club earlier this month. Stay tuned for more videos from the show AND an upcoming DVD of the full set. Directed/edited by David Dubuc, shot by Dave, Spencer Shangkuan, and myself. Many thanks to Jeff and the rest of the guys for hooking us up w/ the show/venue/opportunity.
