The Guidance opened up She Wants Revenge at 3 Kings Tavern at the end of 2019. 2 piece electronic dance music with a live drummer. The main guy Stefan Pruett and the drummer both wore neon ski masks the whole set. It was dancey but with a rock flavor. Not me normal cup of tea but it was high energy and Stefan's interactions with the crowd and general fun positive vibe won me over enough that bought a shirt from him after their set. It did hurt that there were skulls on it.
In one of his songs "She Like The Dance Music" he rattles off a bunch of DJs and band names to answer the question of 'What have you been listening to lately?' in a way reminiscent of LCD Sound-system's song "Losing My Edge". I got to talk with Stefan for a bit when I bought my shirt and talked to him about what I had been listening too at the time. He was friendly personable dude and was more than happy to talk music with me.
Last month I heard that he passed away due to a heart condition. There is some more info here.

When I saw the news I went back and listened to this recording and thought it sounded pretty good and Stefan's interactions with the crowd are kind of funny and sweet. I figured maybe some of his friends or fans might enjoy hearing it. So here you go.
