Glassjaw played another short, semi-secret set @ Maxwell's 10.10.10

Glassjaw seems to love to play unadvertised shows at Maxwell's. First they performed a sort of secret set at Maxwell's last December and last night they did it again. The Long Island group stopped by the small Hoboken venue to celebrate the release of their new single "Natural Born Farmer". The show was billed as a "Sons Modern Family Gathering feat. Tidal Arms/Happy Body Slow Brain and very special guest" and as usual everyone knew Glassjaw would be making an appearance. The packed show apparently saw appearances from Buddy of Senses Fail, Anthony Raneri of Bayside and even Beck? Ryan Flatley of Sputnik Music wrote a thorough review of the night, which you should check out here. Excerpt below.

The expectations for the show were virtually unknown due to Glassjaw’s presence lately.  Opening with “Must’ve Run All Day,” the crowd was belting each word as Daryl Palumbo hung onto to the microphone stand, as it began perhaps the most intimate set that Glassjaw have played.  Even though the music started, with each song, the crowd anxiously waited for that moment of explosion to come, but instead the reward was much grander.  Following “Must’ve Run All Day,” was Worship and Tributecompanions “Ape Dos Mil” and “Trailer Park Jesus.”  While it was nothing groundbreaking, they are songs that are often overlooked in a rather intense catalog.  Even so, there were crowd surfers that hit the stage lights of the low ceiling within Maxwell’s.

I would have gone just to be in the same room as Beck. That's if he was actually there.
