...shortly after the Sheila Divine's set the Axis turned on all their lights and informed the crowd that "if you don't work here, you should get out." And so I did. End of night summary: Band from NEMO most likely to get signed, have a mid-level alt-rock radio-played hit and then fade into relative obscurity - the Sheila Divine, Club most likely to kick out the guests of a private industry party early - the Axis, Guests least likely to have any actual power in the music business - all those lip-locking couples...
