Not sure what it’s called but, the Norman/Tulsa punkers opened up with
something that had “gotta get — gotta get it” in the chorus, and it was catchy
as hell, but in a bouncy, rhythmic way. Very different from “Try Me Out
Sometime”’s melodic catchiness.
Nonetheless, Broncho remain catchy, grungy, unserious in demeanor (there’s something kind of unsettling about watching three late-twenties/thirty-something dudes all droning in unison into their respective microphones, their eyes fixed upon something seemingly hours away), and hella loud. The crowd for their set was bigger than any in the Buffalo Lounge yet, and we’ll see if anybody on tonight’s bill (which includes Fiawna Forte, Green Corn Revival, Jacob Abello, Junebug Spade, JD McPherson, and OK Sweetheart) can step up and draw more.
