Enter Review Title:
Nobody stays above, out in the waves of love
Enter Review Update:
We planned this one out pretty welll by meeting up for Beefsteak beforehand and driving over. It was nice to have my car with us and we both appreciated being able to leave our jackets behind rather than the club's coat check. Flock Of Dimes was a side project from the band Wye Oaks and she was a decent enough opener. A huge fan of The National, I was excited to see Matt again! I had seen The National during Virgin Mobile Free Fest one year and it was a great show, although I do admit I prefer the studio albums a bit better than their live shows. Standout tracks included Return To The Moon, Happiness Missouri, Need A Friend, and Paul Is Alive. Matt told a funny story of how he practically fell onto the crowd during Happiness Missouri once and that was the moment he hit the notes right. Need A Friend was played last and was really cool. They even did a cover of She Drives Me Crazy (about my dog- woof! woof!). The set was short, no encore. But as a side project it was impressive, although the 9:30 Club is getting a bit old and tired for me all the same. Still, so glad we went!
