Come See My Dead Person (Mango's, inside): Yes, that's their name. Although bands with such distinctive monikers often expend most of their creative energy deciding what to call themselves, this was decidedly not the case. The second band in a row I saw prominently featuring an instrument of the stringed variety (here, a violin), these voyeurs veered from sad-bastard Tom Waits folk to rollicking ragtime rock. And with a name like that, there's no excuse for missing their next gig.

Nope, not a rock singer trashing the band's bass player. I have decided to review cult movie theme songs ...just kidding. Actually, Come See My Dead Person is an ultra hip band that played music as cool and an unusual as it's name. They also made their music on an array of instruments that I had seen all used in the same band. For a minut there, I thought a lost rock band had wandered in and joined up with a Bluegrass group. But no, the band played neat original songs styled after Gypsy Folk music. The band is Matthew Mejia, lead vocals and electric guitar; Michael Mejia, lead vocals and acoustic guitar; Martin Johanson, Mandolin; Ray Herod, electric Bass; Brice Knight, electric guitar; Dave Thomas, violin (what's Gypsy music without a violin?); Brian Green, banjo; and Sean Martinez, drums. This night fans were wearing Dead Person tee shirts and cheering every song loudly. I'm pretty sure these guys are on to somthing - because the cheers were well deserved. Their music was absolutely dandy - instrumentally, vocally and lyrically! Their set consisted of well-crafted songs such as "Another John Doe," "Sunday Mornin' Dreaded Day," "Mr. Rickety Bones," "Savior Isn't Home," and "Rat Song." Hey, Im sold on their unique sound and lyrics.
