I totally got some wrong impressions at the Q on Saturday night … and I’ll let you take that as many ways as you want.

What was really great though was the band. Hot hot! My favorite chica drummer and three really good-looking guys have made the GJ music scene better, faster and louder. Wrong Impressions made a great impression on the belly-to-back, jam-packed crowd as well.

Danny, Bill, Johnny G and Bridgett have created a nicely dense, tight, alt-rock sound that I need to hear more of - it’s sweet to find a relatively new band whose originals sound even better than their covers. It’s rare and I love that. And Bill, that punk rock harmonica … well, I can’t say in a family blog just how hot that was. More, please.

Beyond the music, the group has a vibe that’s very crowd friendly. The Q’s a perfect venue for them because they seem to thrive on the face-to-face energy and then put out an even more intense sound from it. Great job, guys. I won’t willingly miss another one of your shows.

OK, one last thing, and you all need to hear this - just because the band is friendly and lovin’ your lovin’ DOES NOT mean you should get up on the mic to jam with them. When your name is on the poster, do your thing. Otherwise, let the band do theirs. If not, I am so going to come in to the next Wrong Impressions show with my trumpet and get into the mix. So what I only know how to hit a high C, I’m sure they play a C note every now and then.

But none of us want that. Trust me. Just give us more Wrong Impressions.
