Hey all – sorry I have been traveling and workin and all kinds of stuff… but let me just say that last weeks (1\/28\/04) Ted Leo show ROCKED!!!<\/p>\n
It’s my first favorite show of the year!!! <\/p>\n
The Yellow Press<\/a> and Fiery Furnaces<\/a> opened and they were both fantastic IMO. We pulled up outside while the Yellow Press were playin and we couldn’t wait to get in it sounded so rockin. The lead(s) had some great energy and they are really fun on stage.. definitely check em out! <\/p>\n Fiery Furnaces was great – the lead singer is this chic that honestly had me mesmerized. One of those where you are rockin and smiling on the inside, but after a couple songs I realized I hadn’t actually been moving – I was just staring. Her voice is different and she kinda oozes “I don’t give a shit, but I don’t think I’m that cool I’m just up here to play some good music”. Which they did! We were into it – so into it we actually bought CD’s for both the openers (something we RARELY do!!) Listening to them both has been just as enjoyable as the show & I’m lookin forward to catching them again. <\/p>\n The Fiery Furnaces actually have a song on this month’s Heavy<\/a> compilation – any of you subscribe to that? If not, check it out. <\/p>\n Ted Leo<\/a> came on & played a few songs solo to start out the set – which was cool! It was so awesome to see and hear him live & in person… He was FANTASTIC LIVE!!! Completely better than I could have hoped to be honest with you. <\/p>\n See, I had loaded my MP3 player with a bunch of Hearts of Oak<\/em><\/a> MP3’s last summer and went hiking almost everyday up the hill behind my house, rockin & walkin to Ted Leo & The Pharmacists… and then a couple months ago got Tell Balgeary…<\/em><\/a> and so to see him play and sing his heart out on stage just absolutely frickin ROCKED!!!!!!! <\/p>\n By the end of the set he was DRENCHED and it seemed like they all had a great time up there. The bass player to his right was, as my friend calls him: A mini Stroke<\/a>.. he had all this curly hair and a ‘chill, I’m so cool’ look. One so cool that my other friend thought he was all coked up, but I just think he is mellow and takin it all in. I liked it – I get sick of the bass players tryin to get all the attention and goin nuts up there. Well that’s not true – sometimes that’s fun – so just think of the ones that aren’t fun and they’re annoyingly obnoxious, that’s when I don’t like it. Anyway – the drummer was great too!!! <\/p>\n Overall just a EXCELLENT EXCELLENT show. One that I didn’t want to end. ever. but it did. <\/p>\n We headed down to SD the next day – and we were {this close} to going to their show at the Casbah for a double header of the TL. <\/p>\n Really great show. <\/p>\n Love, p.s. I do have a couple photos of the show<\/a> here…. I’ll publish the rest of my SD photos at some point too.
