Do they still make Frosh records? For Mean Tangerine!'s sake, I hope that they do. The London, ON band and their vaguely hippie, Sublime-influenced tunes -- with an obligatory whiff of ska -- had the sparse, late-night, undergrad-looking crowd earnestly doing the familiar bop up and down dance. On a vaguely related note, the band's name would look pretty good stickered to a dorm room door or emblazoned on a hookah-room poster. That's weird: I have the sudden urge to hit an Imaginus poster sale; that hasn't happened for years.
Mean Tangerine!
