I just scored some fresh new Puma’s last night in preparation for our yearly trip to Arizona, for Spring Training, Cactus League style. There is nothing that gets me more pumped up than great baseball, cold beer, and…some pumped up kicks? Well normally, I would say a hot dog fits perfectly in that last sentence, but for this post, its shoes. I have to be honest here and admit; I love shoes. But, beyond shoes, I’m even more excited about this Foster the People show in April. The sold-out bill includes three up and coming bands, each of whom have a unique sound. As a matter of fact, a few years from now, we will look back and say that this show at Schuba’s had an all-star cast. Either way, “Pumped Up Kicks,” the first single, from the ‘People, is killing me. It is overly addicting, and the same goes for the other two tracks that make up this short EP. You can play this single endlessly and never tire of the funked up bass, and subdued vocal delivery. Plus, just singing the words “pumped up kicks” makes me smile and feel a bit cool.
