The Kills @ 9:30 Club & After Party @ Skye Lounge (4.30.09)

The Kills attracted a very strange crowd at DC's 9:30 Club this past Thursday night: ranging from screaming 13 year old girls to "gothed out" 40 year old men. The Kills consist of, American Alison "VV" Mosshart, and Brit Jamie "Hotel" Hince.  After being featured on the cover of Nylon magazine in March 2008, The Kills embarked on a US tour for their third album Midnight Boom. Their set started off well with their first single from the album Midnight Boom, "U.R.A Fever". The band also played some of my favorites from the new album, including "Tape Song", "Sour Cherry" and "Cheap and Cheerful" (which was featured on 90210 this month).   

Emily and I of course matched in our Mary Meyer dresses.

After the concert, we headed over to Skye Lounge. The party was fabulous possibly because of the open bar.  The venue was great; if you go, talk to the bartender "BJ", his special shots seemed to be very popular.
