It’s difficult to be familiar with the local music scene and not know the name We All Have Hooks For Hands. They’re undeniable. But, this post is not about the quality of their music, nor is it a review of their 2007 album The Pretender. This post was created to alert the dear readers of a phenomenon that occurs once in a blue moon… a Hooks show in Vermillion. Alas, the nine eccentric members of We All Have Hooks For Hands have decided to give a little love to their USD fans by having a show at Maya Jane’s this Friday the 29th at 7:00pm. Given the raw energy and stage presence that comes with a live Hooks show, I recommend that everybody and their mamas get down to Maya Jane’s on Friday. Shows in Vermillion have a history of being unexpectedly 21+, so minors beware. To the rest, get off your butts, get on your feet, get to Maya Jane’s, and get hooked on Hooks.
