Show Review: Str8Up @The Snout Saloon
According to Snout music director, Chad Kruger, Str8up has never drawn a crowd in the three times they have played the bar. A little surprising, because as far as bands go, Str8up isn't bad. I saw them last in March of 2008. At that time the lead guitar was quite new to the group. So they had some rough edges. Still though, despite those rough edges, Shelby Martin, lead singer provided me with my musical highpoint of 2008. She sang the Four Non Blondes Whats Up?. It was fantastic. Breath-taking really. I requested it (something I almost never do) this trip, knowing it could never reach that pinnacle. Before, it was so totally out of the blue, this time I would know it was coming. Shelby admitted when I talked to her, she hadn't sung it in a while. She did a good job. I was pleased. It's a great song, and a great song for Shelby's range ...
