Just because vocalist Jimmy Gestapo is the sole remaining original member of Murphy's Law doesn't mean the band isn't still entertaining. Gestapo's fresh-faced bandmates seem to have a firm grip on the rousing punk tunes executed with the heart of the Ramones and the tightness of a metal band -- exactly what made Murphy's Law a hardcore institution to begin with. Gestapo is an entirely lovable frontman, despite a grating fixation on getting fucked up and a reverence for women that's just lechery on its best behavior. His ability to talk for almost an entire minute between songs without sacrificing the show's momentum is truly exceptional. You'll still be smiling long after the show's over, and Gestapo works hard for that, so give him a hug. He'll appreciate it.
