Pop-orchestral locals Pillow Army take the Sunset Stage tonight, over running pill boxes and shrugging out of trenches. Which makes sense, given their straight edge looks and this positively guamy weather.
Tonight, they unveil the newest weapon in their arsenal. Taking cues from medieval warfare and contemporary military theory, it involves a bow and targeted harmonious noise, to please and placate. Technically, they’re introducing their new violinist, but my version’s better.
All of this is elaborate training for their upcoming performance at Neumo’s on the 21st, where they will, in a fantastic summation of my overworked metaphor, play with Toy Soldiers. If they could somehow get Army Navy involved, I could retire tomorrow.
