a while back i went to a tiny little show in good ole columbia. i'd heard of the band through my friend casey who also writes for popwreckoning. she's more on the touring/management side of the music world, so when i heard she'd be in town with the empty spaces, i jumped on the chance to meet up with her and well as see the band. i dragged my roommate with me and we had a fun time at sideshow. i've been to sideshow many times; it's kind of the hipster/alternative place to hang out in downtown columbia amongst all the bro bars and college-type places. they also host shows, and it's always a neat place to see a band.
the empty spaces put on a really great show and i'll admit that they exceeded my expectations. for a small midwest band averaging 5'7'' in height, they really packed a punch with toe-tapping beats and punk-ish hooks and vocals. casey and i had some good conversation and we eventually said our goodbyes. it was short and sweet but definitely worth it.
