APE: DREAM WIFE

With a fluorescent yellow electric guitar like that, it would have been hard to walk past the North Stage without Dream Wife catching your eye. The riffs sounded a little too all-the-same for most of the set, but their undying energy proved crucial in producing an entertaining half-hour of punk. They made their statements, announcing “gender is a social construct” before ‘FFU’s’ Spice Girls’ outro shocked many audience members who hadn’t heard of the group before. Say what you want about their recorded stuff, Dream Wife bring it on stage.
