Interesting 80s band.

How was the show?

Wasn't The Mason Jar the name of another 80's band? if I'm wrong.

Decent show

Umm Wayne Hussey-lead singer was sporting a very Bono looking look ala- "Beautiful Day" video..look..short hair..spikey w glasses..
I liked a smaller opening Band named "Audra" almost better.
There from Az./Chicago..live here now..

Mason Jar a band? dunno kiddo

So the Mish are still going are they. I saw them back in '88 when they were big. They had some good songs but the lyrics were awful - second rate goth stuff (but is there such a thing as first rate goth stuff?). The show kicked botty but give me The Sisters of Mercy anyday.

They're gonna have a show here in DC (or just did) and I'm very intrigued.

Oddly, I just downloaded some Mission UK stuff last week. I was looking up some stuff about goth bands, and I heard a clip from their song, Wasteland. I downloaded 3 or 4 more songs. Pretty good stuff. I like it, but I like the genre.
