"I'll Stick Around," Fingernails Are Pretty w/ Blood Root, Basement East, 1/9/26

"All Female Foo Fighters Rage Against Privacy Terms," (folkandproper.news) follows Flummox lead, Aly Dellinger, to an evening of conglomeration, culmination, and raw power at Basement East, 1/9/26's curation of sets by Fingernails Are Pretty, a [super group] tribute to the Foo Fighters, comprised of area band members Aly Dellinger (Flummox), Mariah Schneider (Slider), Rachel Brandness (Flarelight, Lips Speak Louder, Koniag G'ment Services), and Angela Lese (Lips Speak Louder, Taco Mouth, The Dead Deads) with openers, Take the Power Back, [an all female] tribute to Rage Against the Machine, as well as Business is Misery, a Paramore Cover band out of Bowling Green, KY, kicking off Fingernails Are Pretty's last evening together before members move off, and on into, the wilderness of life and blue yonders.
Fingernails' set included guest vocalsit/performers Vera Bloom, Monte Mader, Katy Odenbaugh, Molly Martin, Evyivy, Samantha Francess, Lee Sparrow, Tracee Perrin, and Leilani Kilgore, as well as featured band member's vocals, for their last show after a run of three and a half years, covering many sporadic gigs across the region/area as a super group of cover artists flexing raw in femininity, as well as a coveringing of super artists femininly raw in flex, publically all-inclusiving tributarilyly.

Leading it all off was Business is Misery, a quartet out of Bowling Green, Ky, spearheaded by vocalist and stage presence, Candace Barbee, with Robert Wray on bass, Jay Lillis (or Willis) on guitar, Nate Hornback on drums, and the ghosts of any additional band members needed applied appropriately, as a second guitar part was overdubbed onstage when lead, melodic guitar work or organ work was needed.

Secondly up, Take the Power back, a quartet with each instrument their own show to create Rage's signature funk renegade/grunge metal protest, match-vocaled by Take the Power Back lead vocalist, Katy Odenbaugh, showing how metal vocalists contort their physical vocal range to achieve such success, live, as well as female Tom Morello soloing glitch tactics using pedals and string physics before bagging that ax to leave in the brand new, black, 4x4 F150, just outside in the pay lot.

Lastly, in a sense of uncertainty whether they'll meet again as supers of the group, guitarist Rachel Brandsness and drummer Angela Lese, are bonking out for Minnesota around the spring of the 2026, leaving all female Foo Fighters tribute band, Fingernails are Pretty, to get bucky, one final hour, with a slew of talented guest vocalists including Tracee Perrin Evy Ivy helpful in the future, as well as the past. Most importantly, however, their presence.
