PHEW. The Rentals just played a whirlwind three shows in California, and the kind folks at CMJ, LA Record, Impose Magazine, and Consequence of Sound came out to review and shoot live photos. From melding encores that moved from "Pop Muzik" by M to the Ghostbusters theme to "Friends of P" and an outstanding line-up of "rented" musicians/friends of Matt Sharp, these shows should not have been missed.

Thankfully The Rentals will be playing three east coast shows later in September, and you can find tickets for those dates HERE, with dates + supporting bands for each show below.
