Typewriter Orchestra and Make-Out Band


This Friday the veggie dinner club took a field trip to East Boston. We went to 80 Border Street Cultural Exchange Center to see and art opening and 2 performances. The first band was The East Boston Make-Out Club Band and the second was the Boston Typewriter Orchestra. Both were unique in there own special ways. The EBMOCB was two women, a ukulele and an egg shaker. They did some original tunes and some covers and some covers with original lyrics and the whole time has us laughing. The BTO was just as imaginative. It consisted of 5 men and a woman all wearing shirts and ties and all sitting in front of at least one typewriter. I think the highlight of the show was their version of Wipe Out, complete with a couple amazing solos. It was really something. I'm hoping to post some video, if it turned out. It's almost too hard to describe without seeing it.
