Miguel, Danny, Rossilyn and I went to see
Thrice last night at the House of Blues. What a show...even though they weren't headlining!
First
Me Without You played. The music was pretty good, though the singing was pretty bad.
Then
Thrice cam on, and played probably the best that I've ever seen them play! They played a bunch of older songs...which I loved, and quite a few new ones. I'm not too familiar with the new ones yet, but it all sounded awesome!
After that
Brand New played. They were okay, but definitely not as good as
Thrice. I think that the crowd ruined it for me. There were these psychotic girls in front of us that were totally obnoxious...spilling beer and turning around screaming at the crowd.
What I had fun watching was right before
Thrice came on a row of old people were seated in the special seating area. I was worried at first, and also thinking to myself 'why in the world are these old people here?", but when
Thrice started playing, the old people were bopping their heads and singing the songs! it amazed me! I think that they must have been family or something. Some of the songs were pretty hard and the old lady was bopping away!
Tonight we are heading back to the House of Blues to see
Coheed and Cambria, another favorite band of mine.
Thrice & Coheed always seem to tour this area around the same time...but I'm not complaining about that!
