Ted Leo & The Pharmacists fought literally piss poor weather conditions and played "Where Was My Brain?" live in New York City at Pier 54 at part of Hudson River Park's "River Rocks" free summer shows.
I feel bad for Radio4 and how they didn't get to play, especially since I am/was friendly with 2 members of the band. But considering the circumstances, I think it was the right call to send Ted Leo out there for as long as it seemed safe. The stage was drowned in water because the wind came from the east and blew it right on there, like a fire hose. So one doesn't need a high school diploma to figure out that water and electricity don't mix. Let there be no misunderstanding, this show was always on the verge of getting the axe. Everybody should be happy and thankful that at least Ted Leo got to play, even though I'm sure that sentiment might not be shared by all involved that night.
