Rocking Out on a Saturday Night at Main Street Museum

"...At 8p.m., the Pilgrims hit the stage. Well, you can't really call it a stage, considering there's only room for a drum set on it, but band members play snugly in front of it, on the floor. The lights are low. Red and green lasers throw patterns on the aged wooden walls, and it looks like paint-splattered light... [Pariah Beat] hit an energy peak: the room smells like spilled Heinekin. The crowd screams against the backdrop of paintings of wintry Vermont farmhouses and horses. A man walks past the band carrying a large black garbage bag, collecting empty beer bottles, and the guitar player grabs the bag and pretends to puke in it during a song...The guy with the trash bag calls out,"If you see any trash-this place is nice to us, please throw it away."
