Gruff Rhys & Bright Eyes

Oh wow....oh wow....oh wow...

I can die tomorrow and I wouldn't even care. my life has been completed!
Except for a few minor flaws, Tonight was overall perfect.

The whole night was packed with genius is all I can say.

Gruff Rhys amazed/surprised the heck out of me. He was halarious and that guy is the definition of creativity and only a live show will ever do him justice. I almost was peeing myself the whole time and thinking "how the crap is he doing that?" and "why is there a plastic bird on the stage?"

And Bright eyes. Well. Im still in awe they even came here. As I was looking up watching conor do his thing ( with alot of spit flying everywhere but thats ok ) with overflowing intensity. I was like....nope. Cant be happening, they wouldnt come to saskatoon. Why would they come to saskatoon?
But they were....and im glad.
Although they didnt play some of the songs I was hoping for ( aside from first day of my life and lover I dont have to love ) It was pretty good. I like it when bands play old stuff most people arent familiar with.
The whole band played with such intensity it was insane. The lyrics are perfect and I Loved every second of it

quote of the night said by Conor Oberst.

" this song is written about being put somewhere you dont belong.....like flamingos....in the west edmonton mall.........or a pirate ship.....in the west edmonton mall.....or me .....walking around in the west edmonton mall"




I have succeeded in seeing two of my favorite bands in two months....I do declare that I win.
