Live Review: Cracker and Camper Van Beethoven at 40 Watt Club, Saturday, Jan. 25
Band residencies at the 40 Watt have become a perennial thing to keep concertgoers busy during the winter months. In addition to the upcoming three-night stand by the Drive-By Truckers, the now-annual Camp-In has given Athens transplant David Lowery the chance to curate a weekend for his own bands and to showcase a few others included in that sonic orbit.
It’d be hard to say that Camper Van Beethoven has had anything resembling a smash hit in its 30 years of writing and performing live, but the band's songs still have the cultural resonance to make devoted fans groove around the floor like teenagers (I saw more than a few middle-aged fans raise their beers in approval during the hour-long set).
More after the jump.

The 2014 Grammys in 12 Tweets
Daft Punk won a bunch of awards.
The 2014 Grammy Awards happened last night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The telecast had everything you would expect from the Grammys: whitebread collaborations (Chicago and Robin Thicke), blatant oversights (Kendrick; hip hop, in general), hilarious crowd shots and the occasional bit of honest-to-goodness brilliance (Kendrick, again, and his shouldn't-have-worked-but-did collab with Imagine Dragons).
After the jump, a 12-tweet recap of Music's Biggest Night™. For the full list of winners, go here.
