"Semi Precious Weapons follow in the classic New York tradition of Warhol, Jayne County and other provocateurs that used music as a springboard for their outlandish, gaudy aesthetics. Musically, the group's feet are firmly planted in glam rock, meaning that the visuals of the live show are just as important—if not more so—than the music itself, which the band accurately describes as being "dangerous, dirty, and fun." Vocalist Justin Tranter has been a longtime cohort of Lady Gaga, sharing the stage during many of the pop star's early LES shows. With Nico Vega." - Credit:Ryan Muir

"I confess, until last night, I'd never heard Breedlove before. Oh sure, I'd heard the name but beyond that, I didn't have a clue. I didn't know what he sounded like; I knew nothing, nada, zip. So, after Lady Starlight's DJ set, a set that gave me severe 70's and 80's flashbacks (add to that, some folks were wearing stuff similar to what I wore back in the 80's!), Breedlove and his two very colorful dancing girls took to the stage. I am now, officially, in the know.
I'm still processing Breedlove. He wasn't bad by any means. But, he wasn't my cup of tea. He was however, very witty and rather entertaining. There was a very retro vibe to him; he looks very circa 1970-something. At any rate, my fellow New Yorkers liked him ... a lot! Declarations of love were screamed out. Someone wanted to marry him ... he jokingly accepted saying it didn't matter what the person looked like, he has incredibly low standards."

"There is no better way to start a riot than with Semi Precious Weapons! The New York rockers finish their Japanese tour with Lady Gaga on the 19th of April and they start again with her in Europe on the 7th of May. Rather than going on a holiday, the band has announced some all-ages headlining shows in April. They will also dominate an arena near you as they continue to support Lady Gaga on The Monster Ball Tour in North America." - Artist Advocacy
