The Vox Jaguars @ The Crepe` Place

Last weekend I had the opportunity to see my favorite local band, The Vox Jaguars, who made a rare hometown appearance at the Crepe' Place here in Santa Cruz.

I met up with the band before the show, and snapped this photo in front of one of the local businesses on Soquel, near the Crepe` Place.

With Bob in the background, Trevor set up his drums as Master Mason peeled off long sleeves to reveal a very cool Adrian Belew Power Trio t shirt.

A plethora of photographers snapped away as the Vox Jaguars played their brand of contagious rock and roll. The ambiance was electric as bright flashes illuminated the band as if lightning was striking inside the small but cozy venue as the large crowd huddled together to get a better view of the impressive dimly illuminated act. The other bands must have been taken aback at the amount of attention The Vox Jaguars received. After all, TVJ's weren't even headlining the show. They were the opening act... and don't even have a hit record.


This short video clip features the conclusion of The Vox Jaguars Song for the Girl.

When TVJ guitarist, Jordan, announced, "This is going to be our last song." I hollered, "Dead Kennedys!" Jordan then said, "We're going to play a Dead Kennedy's cover. It's called Swagger."*

*Swagger isn't really a DK's song.
