They're amazing, when I get over how amazing they are I'll be able to type out more details of how awesome they are...
The opening song "How it Ends," seeing it live just brought tears down my eyes. I danced and clapped so much I felt like I was at a jewish wedding. They're kind of this jazzy, jewish, folk, unique, indie, eastern European, and amazingly sounding band. I'm in love with the singer, I forgot what it was like to fall for a guy with so much passion.
I was dancing, clapping, jumping, screaming, and singing along all night. I got there really early with my friend Jesse, so we got really good spots. I was up close to the stage with all anticipation. With all that has happened I've looked forward to seeing them live for nearly a year now. Derek was the one who told me about them. It was such an emotion and spiritual climax for me being there. His voice is so haunting and brings me to the weeping reality with a quirky sense of joy and familiarity.
How it ends has been my favorite song for a while now and with the passing of my grandfather it's more then a song, it's state of my life right now. To just celebrate this state while mourning for it is such a paradox in itself, but when it transcend reality into music I've found a short sense of peace. To dance it away with people and feel the intensity of great entertainers being there was pilgrimage for an indie whore like me, maybe with a little bit of emo too. Even to tie in the movies they've been featured (soundtracked) in like Everything that is Illuminated and Little Miss Sunshine, their sense of isolation, community, and fish out of water; those type of themes I gravitate to. So the score, the soundtrack, and tone was there right in front of me, for me to amerce myself more in some of the lesions of fiction.
With a bottle of wine and bundle of flower the lead singer Tom Hagerman enters the stage. They had a vintage accordion, a trumpet, a violin, a giant bass, mandolin, guitar, and drums. The lady who played the trumpet had red Christmas lights wrapped around it from the inside out. The violinist both played the violin and accordion. The lead did the guitars; acoustic and mandolin. The drummer well drummed and had a trumpet.
DeVotcha oh my was the best live performance I've ever seen. The entire crowd were jumping around and clapping all night and swaying along the bottle of wine he swings in front of the audiences. As my friend Jesse said music is better then sex, for me it was proven last night.
