The Whigs @ the Glass House 9.19.08
Parker Gispert of the Whigs
The Whigs from Athens, GA, brought some southern charm to Pomona's Glass House last Friday night when they opened for Tokyo Police Club. Parker Gispert (vocals, guitar) and Tim Deaux (bass) took turns with the keyboard while Julian Dorio provided more than the usual drums and hair.
I was impressed with Dorio (above) even before I learned that Esquire Magazine named him "Drummer of the Year" last year, as I watched him air-drum perfectly in time with a song coming over the sound system during the stage setup. He wasn't even thinking about it; his hands just automatically made the movements.
