Rampid with comparisons to the likes of Jack White, The Pixies and Wavves it's no wonder that the enthusiastic, hyper-surf, punky, garage rock band FIDLAR opened for The Hives at The Fox Theater!
FIDLAR's 40 minute set started off with the track Cheap Beer: "it's a song about drinking cheap beer!" explained Zac Carper, the band's lead vocalist. Continuing on FIDLAR played songs with self-describing titles such as: Stoked & Broke, Wake, Bake, Skate and Max Can't Surf I wasn't surprised to see that Carper's energy conjured mosh pits in the crowd through out FIDLAR'S set.
Consisting mostly of tracks form their 2011 EP Diydui and 2012's Don't Try EP FIDLAR did an energetic, up-tempo rendition of the Creedence Clearwater classic, Stuck in Lodi which had audience members singing along. Wrapping up their set in punk fashion, FIDLAR welcomed The Hives to the stage with the proclamation "we grew up on that shit!" before kicking off their shoes and exiting the stage.
FIDLAR is fun to listen to and even more fun to see live, just like The Hives are!
Great bill, good night.
