LATEST BOOSTER LIVE REVIEW - MAY 24th 2008 - Which brings us to the headlining act Booster. They looked out to this sea of people still standing before them in the wake of Penelope Suicide: those two crusty old veterans killing braincells by the bar, those three bucktoothed yokels laughing hysterically in the corner, that one band photographer drinking all of their beer rider outve the esky by the stage and they KNEW what to do: play hard, play fast and get the fuck out of there before anyone knew what hit them Booster. If anything could be said for them tonight, its that they took to this smash and grab venue like a seasoned pro and short of a curious extended interlude in their song Prozac which sounded for all the world like Roxy Musics Avalon this was a double digits setlist condensed into a parking space you could trash compact a segwey into, featuring songs that barely sneezed past the 2 minute mark, performed by a band that was off and running the minute that last drumstick dropped. Phew Queens Of The Stone Age, Eagles Of Death Metal, Ozzy Osbourne and a whole lot of thrashing and flailing This wasnt so much a performance as a crack military team parachuting in to assassinate the President.
