Local favorites ASG rolled onto Lumina Avenue last night with the usual amped up crowd ready for their high energy, fast moving, metal sound. But there was one problem: the circuit breakers were not cooperating
with the amperes being produced during the first several songs. They lost power about three or four times, prompting lead singer/guitarist Jason Shi to comment, "Palm Room can handle our amps. Just sayin'." That drew a great hoot from the crowd. It also cleared out the room just a little bit so that when they did get going it was not as packed to the gills. Fine.This band is always interesting to see because they are tight and they do one quick set and no encores. They knock off at about 1:30 and leave the stage for the night and their fans are used to that. Speaking of their fans, the place was packed with all types of people, some of whom might have been new fans, because when the mosh pit broke out they were shocked and appalled. There were some older fans there also, and its always nice to see people who don't ordinarily join the pit jumping in because they are among friends.
Next: Fried Dockside.
