Despite a few technical problems during the beginning of Friday night’s show, The Woovs still rocked out Akron’s own Key West, The Harbor Inn.
Special friend of the band and former employee at the Harbor Inn, Renee Kintz, opened the show. She played barefoot, and her soulful voice had the audience whistling for more even with the microphone screeching throughout her performance. Before performing a song about mistakes, Kintz said, “Mistakes are fun to make.”
But singer Adam Lengyel of The Woovs didn’t seem to think the technical mistakes from the sound booth were fun. During their boxing style introduction from a friend, the static screeching noise returned. After yelling at the sound guy, Lengyel said, “Sometimes you can’t get what you want, even in a bar.”
After the introduction, the energetic Woovs gave a rocking performance that had fans crowding the dance floor and singing along to every song. And not knowing the lyrics makes you feel like you are missing out on something great.
Their songs are a blend of soul, rock, folk and R&B; a little bit of something for everyone. By watching The Woovs perform, you can tell they put a lot of heart into what they do whether it’s in their lyrics or instruments. They also have a big heart for their fans. The band walked around the Lighthouse Bar and Grill drinking and chatting with family and friends after their performance.

What you left out is that we used our own pa, like usual, and adam booted the sound guy who was trying to sabotage the show, bc he was mad that we gave him a line out and do our own sound most shows, and when he booted him to the parking lot, it sounded great like usual, HARBOR fire that sound guy, do something about that peaking with your system, thats why we brought our own pa, bc ours is better and we knew urs sucked, even red wanting blue had a hard time with sound out, there, we may not be back, im always skeptical about playing pretentious places like this.
Arent you being pretentious yourself with that statement? Geshhhh
You’d think they could afford a better sound system, seeing as how it costs your first born child and the deed to your house for a drink.
dont confuse confidence with arrogance., secondly I was simply making the point that when we do our own sound, it sounds great like usual, nothing wrong with making a observation, that was necessary to get my point accross,, gesshhhh,
and also, obviously our sound system is better, it doesnt peak out like theirs, weirdo.
Yeah, you don’t want to mess with a bands sound. Chances are, the band has more fans than the bar or ‘sound guy’. We had that happen once. The only thing running through their sound system was our vocals. Someone at the bar complained the music was too loud. The bouncer went over to turn ‘the band’ down, like it was playing off a CD or something, only effecting the vocals, royally pissing our singer off. The bouncer got a public ear-full after the song. If the band is too loud, you need find a spot for you ass out of ears range.
O yea, a classic case of “think accoustically’, It’s probably not the sound guys fault just the sound system. The speaker placement in the harbor seems like it is out of wack. They need a feedback surpressor.
