House Music For BRIGHT LIGHTS!



BRIGHT LIGHTS! The Syracuse New Wave Rock 'n' Roll Reunion took place on Sunday, July 3rd, with incendiary live sets from Tom Kenny, The Flashcubes, Screen Test, The Trend, The Dead Ducks, Maura & the Bright Lights, and a tribute to Norm Mattice performed by The Richards, all hosted by Dana & Carl.  In the very near future, I hope to gather my thoughts and tell you all about what a wonderful night it was.  In the mean time, here's the house music we listened to before and in between all that transcendent live rock 'n' roll.
