Neon Trees is headlining a stellar tour also featuring Penguin Prison and JJAMZ, and it made an appearance this week at Washington, D.C.’s 9:30 Club. All three bands thew down fantastic performances, to the delight of the sold out crowd, with Neon Trees building upon the energy the crowd had absorbed from the two openers to bring the place to a sweaty, drink-spillin’ frenzy. Lead singer Tyler Glenn brings the energy level of Billy Idol or Johnny Rotten to bear, albeit with a hip 21st Century, gay, twist. As you can tell, it’s something to see. Rather than bore you with thousands of words, Scott Logan’s fantastic photos tell the story themselves.
Also, be on the lookout in the days ahead for an interview and additional photos from our sit down with JJAMZ — a band whose members are also members of bands with names you’ll most certainly recognize.
