Los Angeles' epic all-ages club, the Smell, recently hosted a summertime matinee performance by noise-pop experimentalists, No Age, authentic and charismatic punk-rockers, Mika Miko, and quirky indie-pop spazzers, Abe Vigoda.
For the second year in a row, the daytime gig drew hundreds, if not thousands, of hipsters from the greater L.A. area. For a minute there, we felt like we were living a weirdly inverted scene from Wayne's World 2.
Not only did we film all the bands' sets, but we also pulled members of all of them aside after their respective shows for brief Q&A's. Check out the definitive Smell 2008 video in the media player to the right, or—better yet—view it in high-def at our Vimeo page! (What's the point in filming with that thing if you can't watch the final product in full-screen?)
