OMG HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THAT FOR SO LONG AND IT WAS OF THE AWESOME.
Seriously awesome band to see live. OMG. They did the entire Hazards of Love set without stopping in between songs at all, almost like a proper stage show. Loved it. Then they took a break and came back for a 2nd set and did most of my favorite songs and got all of us to sing along at some points then did an encore and had people join them on the stage for yet another sing-along. Colin Meloy is a consummate entertainer up there and just so cool and dorky and gracious. Wow.
Never thought I'd see a band like The Decemberists rock out on stage like that, but HoL let them do just that. Awesome. So many guitars, the organ, harpsichord settings, a hurdy gurdy, all kinds of stringed instruments I wasn't even sure about. And I am seriously going to have to check out Shara Worden and her group My Brightest Diamond, b/c omg that girl can sing. She was all rocker chick up there, in total contrast to Becky Stark who was all new age hippy girl with all her floating across the stage. Loved it.
Had to work today, after not getting home last night until 3:30 AM, so am absolutely dead but still floating. Best concert experience ever.
