David Vandervelde/Richard Swift@ The Basement, Columbus OH

Monday April 16th 2007, David Vandervelde performed at the basement to a underwhelming but enthusiastic crowd of listeners. Probaly Due to the fact that the concert was on a monday night the crowd was less then stellar, but David and his band didnt fail to dissapoint. We got there a little late and the band still hadnt arrived at the venue. A amazing local band who shall remain nameless(since I was to stupid to find there name out) played an enthusiastic and interesting set. Around 8:30, David and the Moonstation House band took the stage. The band used the cramped and damp space, which truely lives up to its name to the best of their advantage playing all of the songs of their newest record including Jacket, Nothing No, and Murder in Michigan. The band turned in a fantastic performance and was able to capture the audience with their unique humor, especially from the bass player. Overall, there life show is really good. They play their songs with a lot of enthusiasm and not to much flare. David is amazing singer and seems like the type of dude I would want to drink with. It was a shame there werent more people there, but what can you expect. Someday soon I am sure David and his band will be selling out shows. There really awesome and if you havent yet you should really give them a listen. Definitly destined for bigger and better things.
