This Rooney show kicked off what will be 4 straight nights of shows. These guys first made a name for themselves back in 2003! I was never a huge fan, but this felt like it could be a fun night out at the Grog Shop. Opening was Royal Teeth and Romes. Romes are a soul-pop band from Toronto, Ontario with a groovy sound. A rather polished opening act!
Royal Teeth were second. They’re an energetic pop / rock group from Louisiana. These guys knew how to party on stage - if only the crowd was reciprocal. The band didn’t deserve this crowd. Just watch that drummer!
Rooney sounded great, like the polished veteran act they are. Pretty straight forward pop/rock, kind of reminded me of the new Islands stuff I’m hearing - though I guess these guys came first.
