After a jog around town which included the Quest and the Red Sea, ended up swinging by the Urban in time to catch some of the Filthy Divine action. Heard that a band by the name of 'Toast' opened and are a rather young rock band playing about town. Looks like Viva's sister was handling the merchandise for Filthy Divine which hit the stage all dressed in black for the most part. Sounds like this would be one of Nates last show playing bass with Filthy Divine. With black shades for Nate, red t-shirt for Scotty at drums, a red guitar handled by Nick and red hair at stage center with Viva - Filthy Divine hit the stage to close out the night. They have developed a well rounded set of rather driving pop rock with a twist of darkness; with elements of funk, punk and metal to stir up interest with a broader crowd mix than a strictly conventional rock formula. After beginning the New Year at the Fineline Cafe in Mpls, they will be playing there again for their upcoming CD release show in August. Sounds like the album title will be 'This is Filthy Divine'. Looks like a good show for fans and those new to the band to catch the Filthy Divine expierence.
