KONA with Melody Reyne, Drum and Lace and VIAA at The Bootleg Theater

What an awesome night of music at the Bootleg Theater. Opening up was Melody Reyne, an earnest singer songwriter set. Up next was Drum and Lace. She played her electronic synths with a background of videos playing against the Bootleg wall. There were city images of Europe from the 50's/60's. A young woman could be seen walking the streets of Europe. VIAA reminded me of a disco queen with a touch of Sade. One of her songs was about an ex-boyfriend that thought she had done something, but she hadn't so she wrote a song like she had done it. The residency night belonged to KONA. It was a set that screamed out love. It was a very important set as KONA's grandmother had died earlier that day. It was a heartfelt set, showing love for her grandmother.

What was noticed from the night: I swear that someone was taking selfies inside the bathroom of the Bootleg. Flashes could be seen.
