The Ramones had CBGB. The Doors had Whiskey A Go Go.  Guns and Roses had The Troubadour. R.E.M. had The 40 Watt.  Dead Sara has The Viper Room.  Perhaps its the rock and roll home-court advantage.

Dead Sara's Dia De Los Muertos show at Viper Room last night was no different.  It sold out in no time. They conjured up some black magic, charging the air with electricity, and laid down a performance that fans will talk about for years.  I always try to take a camera to their shows, which is sort of idiotic because I can't help myself and would rather just dance and absorb the show.  But still, I managed to grab a few shots worth sharing...
