They Might Be Giants
The Cat Club in New York, NY
July 12, 1987
Fan Recaps and Comments:
From "GIANTS AMONG MEN" by Martin Aston
Record Mirror, Dec. 12, 1987:
You walk into a club (in this case, the Cat Club in downtown New York City) and head for the bar, waiting for the headliners to waltz on. A friend comes up to you, tugs your arm and tells you that the support group, They Might Be Giants, are really something, come and watch. So you slouch up to the front of the stage and before you know it, the two Giants — one with a battered guitar, the other clutching a battered accordion, playing to ragged beatbox tapes — are asking the audience to "scream as if they're in hell"
Suddenly, this duo is writhing on the floor while they're still playing. Next, they're dancing a folk jog. To top all that, they stand there, bombarding us with the most wonderfully crafted, addictive pop songs.
