This Wavves concert was already three days ago, which means that the “comeback” story is old news. In the atomic-speed Behind The Music career time of Nathan Williams, he’s undoubtedly moved on to the next chapter of the story. We are not sure whether by now he’s found Jesus, gone country, or written a symphony. What we do know is that on Wednesday at Bowery Ballroom with the reverb at full throttle, Wavves delivered a fifty-minute set of 15 songs, both old and new, to a crowd of bouncing, slamming and crowd-surfing fans all with a cast from a broken wrist on Nathan’s right arm.

Acidjack recorded this set from the middle of the floor, which was crowded and crazy. There’s quite a bit of crowd noise on this recording which rather than distracting the listener, actually adds authenticity to the capture. Enjoy!
