The Lyres live 8-14-2004

The Lyres performing at LITTLE STEVEN'S UNDERGROUND GARAGE FESTIVAL NYC August 14, 2004

[@rustytuney7]

I managed a small club in Cambridge back in the early 80's called 'Jacks'. The Lyres would pack the house and killed it on stage. Great Boston band.

Wow they could still bring it in the thousands!

Murphy is the best damn drummer!

[@tilefono200]

long live the LYRES JEFF THE MONOMAN & HIS FARFISA

[@simondaws892]

Only saw The Lyres once in 1988 at Club Me in Sacramento, CA. Love the band, but the show wasn't so great. Only about 50 people there who seemed pretty perplexed, and Jeff had to keep fixing the organ while either very stoned or drunk. Still love digging out their albums from time to time. Glad to hear Jeff is still around!

Looking at the camera guys you would think they were producing a fucking IMAX movie.

[@monkeybeatvideo]

I believe they did film it in (at the time) some kind of hi-def. I've never been able to find out what happened to the footage, and even the bands I talk to who performed don't seem to know.
