Blind Pilot
October 13th, 2009 | 14:18We saw The Low Anthem and Blind Pilot at The Earl last Sunday. Blind Pilot was really good. They have a lot of atypical instrumentation (Upright bass, electric vibraphone, etc). It comes together to make some quite pretty music.
Low Anthem was ok, I may have liked it more if I hadn’t been so tired (most of their stuff was slow).
I don’t know how we do it, but no matter how late we show up, we always end up right at the stage at the Earl.
The Walkmen
October 12th, 2009 | 14:15Throw Me The Statue & The Brunettes
September 11th, 2009 | 12:48Kathleen and I walked down to the Drunken Unicorn Monday night to see Throw Me The Statue and The Brunettes. Also, a band called The Nurses opened.
It was a good show, but started way too late. I just can’t go to shows on work nights that go past 1 AM anymore. I feel so old.
Sorry about the crappy cell phone picture, it’s all I had with me.
Sir Paul McCartney
September 11th, 2009 | 12:37Can’t believe I have forgotten to post about this. On my birthday Kathleen took us to see Paul McCartney in Piedmont Park!
It was amazing. We were about 25 feet from the stage. We got rained on for about 20 minutes, and nobody moved. He played for over 2 hours straight.
Unfortunately, we didn’t take our camera because they said they weren’t allowed, but everyone else had one. We took a disposable camera though. Should have those developed soon.
