Gil Mantera's Party Dream @ the Knitting Factory

I have never really been sure what to make of Gil Mantera's Party Dream. The group, which is made up of brothers Donny and Gil Mantera, play a sort of synth-pop-rock mixed with a good bit of humor. On Saturday I headed down to the Knitting Factory to catch what I thought was going to be as much a stand up performance as it was a going to be rock show. But what I got was an all out crazy rock show. The sold out crowd just went insane during their set. The band barely gave the crowd a moment to breathe as the blasted through their 1-hour set. Overall it was a great time and if you haven't the Party Dream live strong suggest you catch them on their current tour.
