AWK!! STRING QUARTET!! PARTY!!

Last week Shana and I went to see Andrew W.K. perform a sit-down show with the Calder Quartet. They gave out programs and performed classical pieces by Fred Frith & Philip Glass, along with others I wasn't familiar with, before going into a mini-set of AWK's own material. Here is a video of the song "I Get Wet" that I shot. Toward the end of the song, people got out of their chairs and started dancing up front, and then during the next songs a ton of people got on stage and it got pretty crazy. Please enjoy this thoughtful reinterpretation of the title track from Andrew's debut album.
