Lions in the Street

By Michael Corcoran | Thursday, March 15, 2007, 11:46 AM

Artist: Lions In the Street

Hometown: Vancouver, B.C.

Venue: Brush Square Park. 3 p.m. Wednesday

High point: A set-ending guitar jam on “You’re Gonna Lose” that suggested a Canadian Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Low point: Hungry crowd seemed more intent on loading up at the buffet than cheering on this dynamic band.

Post-show buzz: A short, but sweet set that makes me want to catch the full-on showcase at Club DeVille Saturday at midnight. The first great band I saw at SXSW this year.
