Trash Talk @ Lustre Pearl (Life Or Death PR) 3/14/12: "Fuck! Up! Their! Shit!" implored Trash Talk frontman Lee Spielman during the culmination of their set, referring to the gawkers toward the back of the room who'd first fled at first mention of "circle pit." "This is our first show this year," Spielman said. "What month is this?" The pit itself, despite the, you know, violence, was a fraternal affair, where participants (included our own Tom Breihan) chatted happily after the gig like two old friends catching up. For bringing out some of the worst in people (again, the violence), Trash Talk's raucous punk brings out the best, too. -Corban
