I saw Youth Group<\/b> back at CMJ and they were good back then, even better now. I was eager to see them again after some extensive touring in the states. This time around they were solid, playing a great set of songs. They seemes very relaxed on stage, probably because it was their last stop on their tour.<\/p>\n
It was a bummer not being able to get into the sold out Matt Pond PA show at the Merc last year. Considering that would have been the first time I’d get to hear their new album live, which is simply a great. Tonight’s show was musically on target despite some technical problems. They played through all their “hits” and the new ones were perfect live. Tonight’s show was one of the best sounding ones I’ve been to. It was also the most times I’ve heard the band talk on stage, which I would advise they stop doing. Less talking, more playing. Despite having their van stolen, they finally arrived home to play a great show.<\/p>\n
So this is the part where I may put a link to any pictures. But my camera broke at the show. \ud83d\ude41 sad indeed.
\nCheers old friend, we’ve had some good times.<\/p>\n
