March Fourth Marching Band, Super Geek League – Feb 27 – The Majestic

EXTRAVAGANZA! Wildly colorful, ridiculously happy, eye-popping sexy, dance, dance, dance! Boogie Universal did an incredible job with this show. Two huge bands upstairs, a packed dance hall downstairs, and huge grins and costumed dancing bodies everywhere.

Marching Fourth Band (Portland) got things started. The band wasn’t as lively as I’ve seen them in the past, but the crowd was all in. Favorite Marching Fourth moments: the massive 8 foot cowbell for their new song “More Cowbell,” and their cover of “Hard Out Here for a Pimp” (that’s right, from the movie Hustle & Flow).

Seattle’s Super Geek League is an experience. Not the kind where you are so into the music the venue just melts away. Actually for me it was more opposite. As loudly thrashing and insanely overwhelming as it was, the music was basically the raucous accompaniment for the SGL spectacle. No question, the show was amazingly awesome. I can honestly say that I have neither seen, nor experienced anything like it, and absolutely recommend it.

But you have to know what you’re getting into. It’s a full-fledged production. The musicians are all men except for the lead vocalist. She is wickedly sexy, with a crazy set of lungs that blasted her killer voice into every corner of the dance floor.

Also in the band’s ranks are a couple prop guys and three hot dancers that come up in different costumes (which were occasionally reduced to pasties). There was an alien on stilts with a green alien penis that squirted water into the crowd. The confetti machine spewed giant glitter flakes on the crowd all night long. There was a priest who pulled audience members up to give them communion with ritz crackers. The energy, and the entertainment, was nonstop.
