Definitely would go see these guys again. I was so amped as soon as I heard the opening chord for Closer start playing (my favourite song), and it kept up through the whole concert. Was incredible when everyone sung along to Sex On Fire and Use Somebody. Also was so thankful they played heaps of older music, as it was good to have variety. At first I was a little disappointed it was merely a "concert" not a "show" with extras etc. But I've decided it was a good thing, they're not an overly showy band, and to add bits of theatrical elements into it would've seemed fake.
Highlights; Closer, Knocked Up, King Of The Rodeo, Sex On Fire, California Waiting and The Bucket.]]> http://www.last.fm/user/techno-shit/journal/2009/02/16/2hnmmm_things_that_interest_me_%3A%5D Mon, 16 Feb 2009 07:35:39 +0000 http://www.last.fm/user/techno-shit/journal/2009/02/16/2hnmmm_things_that_interest_me_%3A%5D
