Monolith 2007 Recap - White Rabbits
Ian’s performance ending up running a little later than it was supposed to, which freaked out the sound guys. It probably should have because White Rabbits have a fairly elaborate stage setup that includes two drummers who keep perfect time with each other. Their set starting late was one of the few snafus of the weekend, but the troubles quickly disappeared with their excellent set.
I’ll admit that I was a little lukewarm on the band before Monolith. I liked some of the songs we had been playing at WOXY, but I guess they hadn’t made too much of an impression on me. Seeing them live changed all of that. By the time they started their set, I’m pretty sure that the room had filled to over capacity. I didn’t even try to make it to our little nook in the back of the room, I just watched from the side of the stage.
Even though some of the guys in the band were a little under the weather, they played a set of tunes off their Fort Nightly record that made the massive crowd go wild. It was probably the most unexpected set of the weekend for me because I didn’t know that there would be so many people pushing their way up to the front and singing along to every word. When all was said and done, the band fully won me over and I declared that they were the best performance of the weekend. Check it out for yourself with the free downloads below:
