Monday, June 27: Saucy Yoda

The New Frontier Lounge

By Rev. Adam McKinney on June 22, 2011

The last time I saw Saucy Yoda, it was at an underground benefit show being thrown for a friend. Standing in front of the stage with just a microphone in hand, being accompanied by a prerecorded backing track, Saucy Yoda unleashed a flurry of absurd party jams that incorporate equal parts hip-hop and electro-clash attitude. Also on that bill (and joining Saucy Yoda once again at The New Frontier) were tour mates Mythological Horses, whose lead singer took a drunken header into the drum kit - and that wasn't even close to the end of the chaotic set. Reader, the straight-up truth of this show is that it's going to be fucking nuts. I don't know about you, but I've been itching to get a little unhinged.
