I was pretty bummed when the Neptune converted from a movie theater to a live venue. I mean, it’s way better than getting torn down for condos. But I had a lot of movie memories there. Then I saw Thao and the Get Down, Stay Down there. Car Seat Headrest played that night, too. I already liked both bands, but seeing Thao live I realized she is a legitimate rock star. (I later saw her at Doe Bay Fest, where the folky aspect of the band was on more prominent display). Really, you couldn’t put that space to better use.
