Last Friday Girls streamed their entire half-hour in-store performance at Grimey's in Nashville on Ustream, preserved here outside of time with only minor audio lag, amazingly. The eight-piece touring band sounds super tight, with a focused set drawing mostly from Father, Son, Holy Ghost. "I guess we should say hello to America," frontman Christopher Owens suggests, halfway through. "Whatever. Girls online." Jams on top of new favorite jams, only the more impressive performed midday in such blemish-exposing fluorescent light. Favorite moment, easily: special guest appearance by Owens' smiling father at 6:50.
