The night before, a fearsome garage rock twosome from Chicago called White Mystery had laid waste to The Summit, or so I’d been told. I couldn’t make it to that show, but luckily Miss Alex White and her impressively-named brother Francis Scott Key White had decided to set up right in the middle of Spoonful to do a retake of the previous night before taking off for another show in Cleveland. They did so while decked out in the most ferocious Hello Kitty and Iron Maiden t-shirts and house pants that I’ve ever seen. (more…)

Thanks to Spoonful Records for hosting White Mystery at an in-store performance in Columbus, Ohio.  This acid-green photo is by Marie Gherghei!  Also, thank you to Very Best Vintage for the Hello Kitty Shirt on Alex, and Metropolis Vintage for the sick Iron Maiden shirt Francis wears here.
