No one stands out from Momo's packed calendar of alt.country acts
more than the the Modestos with their crazed roots-rock explosion.

Last Tuesday, Grub and his talented crew delivered 90 minutes of
compelling songs showcased by sizzling rock-and-roll musicality.
With his feet firmly planted in the footsteps of the Replacements'
Paul Westerberg and X's John Doe, you might think Grub an unusual
choice of songwriter for Momo's red-tableclothed lounge but these
are songs worth treating to a special evening. The sound guy dialed
them in perfectly and the dim-lit loungey atmosphere was comfy.

Even in this relatively quiet room, Grub's electric delivery puts
the punk back in alt.country ala Bottle Rockets, early Wilco and
Texas's own defunct darlings Slobberbone. During the show, the
Modestos reached rock heights with the driving sardonic ballad "How
Are You" and then brought in the fun with the boot-stomping "808."
For the ladies (to quote Redd Volkhart), Grub threw in his self-
depreciating love songs "Jason Leigh" and "Full of the Moon." All of
it was brought neatly together by the thrilling tones of good ole
American rock-and-roll guitar and Grub's authenticly raw vocals.

If there is any night you're going to head off the beaten Strip for
an early-week show, make it this one. There's something about that
room that brings the best out this already great band.
