Ok let me preface this by saying, this is the first review I have written in almost 6 months. It took local band Whale Fire kicking ass at White Water to get me back into the whole Little Rock Live Music thing. If it were not for Lizzie, this site would have been finished a long time ago. First off thanks goes out to her for keeping this thing alive and second, thanks goes out to Whale Fire for being the next best thing Little Rock's scene has to offer. If you missed tonight's show, you missed out. The first time I saw Whale Fire they were filling in for Isaac Alexander's cancelled show at White Water several months ago. Honestly, they were not that great then.

 I have no idea what happened between now and then but seriously, they get better every time I see them. I remember catching another White Water show after that and a ground breaking show at Juanita's a few months ago. These guys must rehearse forty hour weeks because I have never seen a band turn around so fast. Unfortunately I missed the last couple of shows at Circa '76 and downtown. I am half battling a cold and I was still not going to miss the show at White Water for anything.

They definitely did not disappoint the several people that made it out Saturday night. The rumor mill has them playing another time in April and a possible Riverfest outing in May. An album or possible EP is in the works and I cannot wait to see what they come up with. The next time they play, don't miss them. Seriously.
