Great night on the lake in Milwuakee
Ava Mendoza opened and seemed a little mismatched for the crowd.Her mix was a little off and her set was pretty distorted. Some of her work was really good - but it still seemed a little miss-matched for these two groups and the crowd. I'll give her another listen though - to be fair.
Echo & the Bunnymen came next - played a decent set, but seemed a little stiff on stage.They didn't seem to be into the performance very much.
The Viloent Femmes BROUGHT IT! Very high energy performance - pulled the crowd in and didn't let go until the encore.
Despite a rain delay between Echo & the Femmes to let the lightning pass and dry off the stage- the show seemed to go off without a hitch.
