There were a number of shows around town on this Saturday night. Decided to drop by the Terminal Bar in Mpls to see Great Girls Blouse with their new CD out called '147471'.  The Blouse is Amy Chorney on guitar and vocals, Jason Chorney on bass and Brian Remme at drums. It was a cold windy night outside and rather warm inside with the bands In Pictures and Shamus 73 playing with The Blouse. A good portion of the comic mind of Nel Harrison was on hand as he took to stage to deliver his clever sharp edged humor for the crowd as The Blouse prepared to rock the crowd. Hot comes in different flavors with the guitar work of Amy on her Ibenez and Jason kicking out the bass lines on his Steinberger. Looks like they played all six songs from the new CD along with a number of earlier songs. They bring forth a funky grunge crunch to rock the house for a good time with lyrics and punch for areas above the shoulders. Sounds like the song 'Monster' will be among the favorites from the new CD. Perhaps the CD title '147471' is food for thought or as Amy said, 'Buy the CD and feed the Blouse'. Scene fans will certainly get a chance to see them at a venue around the Twin Cities and perhaps on the road later in the year.
