Once again, the second I got to my seat at the Greek, the lights went down and the show started. I completely missed Heartless Bastard (don’t know them) and Ra Ra Riot (wanted to catch them but no biggie) but I didn’t know that at the time; I thought we got there in time to catch the second opener. My friend Laura leaned over asked if this was Andrew Bird and I said, “if he has a violin and starts whistling, it is.” Sure enough the first two songs were Andrew whistling, singing and playing the violin.
I caught Mr. Bird once before at Coachella and that was a terrible show. He’s not meant to play a tent in the middle of the day when it’s over 100 degrees. Last night, he sounded great. So good I might just download some of his older stuff.
(Those that know me know that is high praise from me).
PS, thanks for the tickets DB.
