Liniers




Having a great time at the only monolingual person at the Kevin Johanson and Liniers show. Although he's done Bowie's Modern Love and Lou Reed's Perfect Day . Good voice and talented guitarist 

Liniers draws while Kevin Johanson sings

The two are on stage at Ivy City Smokehouse and I'm the only monolingual one in the audience. This is totally cool.
