Bay Bridged show review 5/24/2010
Joy Division tribute band Dead Souls came on around midnight. I must admit some prejudice against cover bands, and I assumed I would skip out early on these guys to avoid a sleepy Thursday, but Dead Souls won me over in the first seconds when their singer came out from the back corner looking exactly like Ian, dancing like Ian and yes, singing like Ian. He really has it down and so does the rest of the band. They tore through most of the hits and drew the small, seated crowd right up front with everyone singing along and slam dancing. The members of this band are clearly devoted fans, but more importantly they are loving every minute of it. They take it very seriously and do it really well. As most of us never had the chance to see Joy Division, this is a real treat. If you are still reading, seek them out. R.I.P. Ian.
