OK… here is round one of our SXSW posting spree. REPTAR! Quentin posted on these guys a while back, but I had never seen them live. This band definitely has staying power, combining fun dancey pop with weird costumes (teletubbies) and giant props (ears, bats, squids). Their indie-dance-banger “Ready or Not” is best enjoyed loud and pretending you are 14 years old when your parents aren’t home.

Thanks to McKee from DC blog bros All Things Go for suggesting I check this out.
