WE LIKE THIEVES, THIEVES LIKE US


HEY! What’s your favorite scene in Spies Like Us? We’d have to go with the one early on where Chevy Chase is all dressed up in manufactured injuries to conceal elaborate cheating mechanisms for a Super Secret Spy Test. Yeah, thieving the answers. We never ask bands where their names come from, we just make it up – and hence our conclusion about doubletime hi hat and leady-bass rock kids Thieves Like Us.

They kind of remind us of this one wicked good back in the day (2003) Houston band that got all kinds of teased with jabs like "Singlepol" or "Interstrokes" or more commonly "Thee Haircuts." Well, we are willing to bet the meaning of KGB that there are some knuckles out there that make similar cracks about Thieves Like Us. Indeed, we bet they get alot of "Thief Division," "Theif Order" and "Thievertines" too.

WHATEVZ. We're know first hand how much fun it is to write and play music like this. And seriously, why does it burn so much briscut that some people rock out with a healthy lung-full of Party People from the past? Plus, you know any outfit with a track called "Indie Rock Star" is a bit on the slapstick side - you like fun, don't you? So turn your base back into a drive-in, grab a tie and do a little safety dance. - you know you want to.

Catch Thieves Like Us tonight at The Proletariat with BANG BANG and Reprogram Radio.
