Violent Femmes - Blister In the Sun Live Performance at Main Street Armory
On September 18, 2021, the Violent Femmes delivered a lively performance at the Main Street Armory in Rochester, NY, part of their tour with Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. This concert came after their 2019 album "Hotel Last Resort," which showcased a fresh sound while echoing the band's iconic blend of punk and folk. Interestingly, the band’s enduring hit, "Blister In the Sun," has become synonymous with their identity, and its infectious energy truly resonates live. The Femmes have seen several lineup changes over the years, but the core spirit remains intact, making their live shows memorable experiences. Notably, the band continues to attract a diverse audience, bridging generational gaps, which speaks to their timeless appeal. Seeing them live in 2021 is not just about the music; it’s a vibrant connection with a band that has shaped the alternative scene since the '80s, still going strong.
