It took all my energy to drag myself out of the house on Friday night, July 23 after being a little disillusioned watching a new documentary on Woodstock ’99, so I went out looking for some positive energy. Of course, I found it in the thriving local music scene.
People have spent the pandemic practicing, especially local alternative rock trio Pomeranian Fight Club, who had the Owl Acoustic Lounge hopping. While I missed local pop punk band the Waterfront, I caught an energetic set from a much improved Pomeranian Fight Club.
They had a lot of energy, they mixed a touch of punk with a little funk, some classic rock grooves , some ’90s emo rock and contemporary alternative rock energy.
They had gang vocals and a lot of intensity. The guitarist/ vocalist did some fretboard tapping and sang over it.
Even drummer Lincoln Shriner got to sing a couple songs.
Then they switched instruments for their last song.
