Band Marino in Miami

Oh Miami. Where did you go wrong? Was it the seduction of your beaches? Was it your love for streamlined shades and chick mohawks? Where is your indie scene? I thought I would see you on Thursday night but you let me down. You missed an amazing performance by Band Marino, the indie-folkrock band from Orlando. You also missed a great performance by the opening acts Sir Majesty (Miami) and The Empties (Athens, Georgia). They made music that would’ve had your toes tapping and your heads rocking. Was it the venue? Was it the price? Couldn’t be the price. Eight bucks is a damn good number, easy on the wallet. Maybe it was Band Marino’s album art:


The Sea and the Beast


Too hand-made for ya? I don’t know why you didn’t show up. It’s possible the show wasn’t promoted well either. They are, after all, an independent band. But you should have done your research. You should have been there. You used to be about the music, man.

    I was reading up about Band Marino, and did you know that the cover art on that album was done by the lead singer’s girlfriend? Quite the talented bunch :)
