(MSO) Seattle trio The Presidents Of The United States Of America--currently on a sold-out U.S. headlining tour--were joined by Wayne Kramer of the MC5 onstage at the Roxy in Los Angeles this past Friday night (3/21) for a blistering performance of the MC5's "Kick Out The Jams." Later that evening, the band welcomed Weird Al Yankovic (with whom they recently teamed to shoot the video for their new single "Mixed Up S.O.B") to the stage for a hilarious rendition of Boston's classic "More Than A Feeling"
During PUSA's month-long U.S. tour, fans--which remarkably range in age from 14-30--can expect a healthy mix of new songs and old hits, including sing-along crowd pleasers "Kitty," "Lump," "Peaches," "Back Porch," and "Naked and Famous," among others. The trio performed new songs off their just-released album THESE ARE THE GOOD TIMES PEOPLE (Fugitive Recordings/EMI), including album opener and first single "Mixed Up S.O.B.," "Deleter," Ladybug," Sharpen Up Those Fangs," Truckstop Butterfly" and "More Bad Times."
