As a fan of punk rock, I'm always down to have a good time when it comes to concerts. However, few concerts provide the perfect blend of fun and punk that a performance by The Queers does.
The Queers' music, like a lot of punk rock, is truly just about having a good old wild time. When I saw them in Detroit, the audience around me certainly understood this, as well, joyously and riotously revelling when the band announced songs like "I Didn't Puke," "Brush Your Teeth," and "I Want C**t." When the latter was announced, one of the more inebriated members of the crowd to my left shouted, "Who doesn't?!" much to the enjoyment of the other members of the crowd around us. I, myself, laughed out loud because that's absolutely the type of fun-loving environment I'd expect at a wild concert such as The Queers.
"This Place Sucks," the last song in their set, felt especially appropriate to me, seeing as the song was being played as the final one in a set being performed in Detroit, Michigan. However, none of the audience members were offended, which didn't surprise me; after all, they are fans of The Queers. Instead, the cheering and clapping was extra uproarious, with members whistling and jumping up and down in appreciation.
