Less Than Jake played an awesome set at the Summit Music Hall here in Denver on March 9, 2012.  It pulled mostly from Pezcore Losing Streak (7 songs!), which is a great treat for old(er) LTJ fans.  They opened with Gainesville Rock City from Borders and Boundaries, and 3 songs from both Anthem and Hello Rockview.

There were two songs from the TV/EP (it looks like Twist & Shout may have a vinyl version in stock!) which was an exciting surprise. Watching a bunch of punks and ska kids dancing to the theme to Spongebob Squarepants.  We also learned that Roger had a Spongebob themed birthday party for his 34th birthday.

I’ve been going to LTJ shows for about 12 years, and I have to say that this one had just as much energy as the first time I saw them.
