British Seapower on March 29 in St. Louis 

The Billiken Club, nestled in the basement of Saint Louis University's Busch Student Center, has gained a reputation for hosting stellar indie and rock bands -- for free -- over the past few years. On Saturday, March 29, stars-on-the-verge British Seapower took to the tiny stage at SLU.

On March 29, 2008, British Sea Power, from you guessed it, England, played a show at the Billiken Club at Saint Louis University.

Locals Target Market opened the show. Throughout the set, Clayton Parker played both keyboard and guitar. Every band on the show did instrument double-duty at some point.

Indie rockers also love the NCAA tournament, though SLU's basketball team came nowhere close to an invite to the championship tourney.

The second band of the night was The 1900s from Chicago, Illinois.
