In case you haven't perused the paper yet this week, don't miss out on the fact that N
ot Waving But Drowning is doing a reunion show this
Friday Saturday night at Fubar. They were before my time, but
Ryan Wasoba says:
...the tragedy of Not Waving But Drowning has more to do with timing than geography: By its early-'00s breakup, NWBD was too sentimental for hardcore purists and too spastic for the burgeoning emo crowd. The group's proto-screamo would have been groundbreaking had it existed a few years earlier - and yet many bands have since turned similar juxtapositions of Sabbath riffs and Bane breakdowns into profitable careers.
I have no other info beyond that it starts at 7 p.m., but if you do, chime in below.
