Everybody has their "band that got away." You know, the one that, no matter how many times they come to town, you always miss out due to some conspiracy of fate. And for the last two years, mine has been Montreal four-piece TOPS

This past Saturday, however, the curse was finally broken. Featuring a DJ set by Blue Hawaii and an incredible opening performance by local fuzz-rockers Beverly, they put on a truly engrossing late-night show at Brooklyn mainstay Baby's All Right. And we've got the pictures to prove it.

All night, same expression. Riley Fleck is a thinking-man's drummer.
