Maritime: "Calm"

Since coming to Madison as a grad student several years ago, I've gotten used to being the old guy at certain shows, especially at Club 770 shows. So I'm always surprised when I'm the only person really getting into some hot-sounding, hard-working band. By the time Maritime had gotten a few songs into their set, my wife and I were bouncing around, singing along, letting the music do its thing, but everybody else just kind of sat there and watched (although not in the sense that people sat and watched the City on Film, which is to say, by sitting cross-legged on the floor). The band kept the energy up throughout their set, but as polite and appreciative as the crowd was, they never quite got past their hipster self-consciousness.
