Ra Ra Riots live at the RELENTLESS Garage, the venue is a bit meh but the lights are quite decent at times. I was quite underwhelmed last time I heard them live, there were a lot of songs that sound good on record but doesn’t translate too well live, now with a new album out they can really flesh out the songs that work well live. Too Dramatic and Boy were fun and they obviously ended with Dying is Fine. Anyways here’s the photos :)

    Cue tacky final fantasy 7 puns (how great was FFVII?). Anyways, been dying to see Sufjan Stevens live so when tickets went on sale I was plagued with infinite sadness knowing that tickets were ever so promptly sold out. Fortunately my friend Jason bagged some free tickets and I became his plus 1. Sufjan amused us with his flowery banter on POWER themes such as love and death and made sure that each song was eye candied up with neon and infinite dancing. He ended the show with Impossible Soul and came back to play UFO, Casimir Pulaski Day and the almighty Chicago. Balloons and confetti rained on the finale and the ever so restrained seating arrangement experienced a paradigm shift into standing dance mode. Good times. Anyways, photos ensue and such, hopus del enjoy :)

      Eee Juanita *clicks fingers and stamps feet*! Its been a long time since they’ve played! They originally were supposed to play at some other grumpy venue but fortunately the show got cancelled and moved to Scala which is a nicer venue for intimacy (when you’re at the front anyway, the back is just horrifying). Anyways, it’s been a while and they’re nearly ready to release a brand new album! They showcased a few tracks and yeah, sounds pretty ace, can’t wait! Kinda miss the drum action from Juanita :(

      Howling Bells: Lighttts

      Howling Bells: Duelling banjos and such

      Howling Bells: eeeee

      Howling Bells: Lights were tasty

        Come on get dooown! It’s been a few years since I’ve seen Lykke Li live (last time was at Scala where the barrier less stage technically meant that Lykke Li was dancing with me). Anyway, here’s photos of the show, new album is fun ^_^. Ooh and Sarah Blasko supported, though I miss her upbeat days :(

        Lykke Li: moody lighting is moody

          Editors live at RAH, was a fun show. I was able to get my seat upgraded twice to ultimately get an awesome view of the band. Mmm seat ninja’ing.

              Always wanted to see Goldfrapp play live. Probably around the Black Cherry era, sad times :( But those dark days are over! She was awesome live, though no theremin action :( However she did a handful of oldies including Train, Strict Machine and Lovely Head. The stage kinda looked like a giant rectum…
              But yeah, everyone was getting sexied up during the entire show and i certainly did a lot of dancing myself. Good times

                  Imogen Heap live at Royal Albert Hall, this was certainly a special night with Immi, the first half with her conducting a full orchestra to play along side some nature footage and the second half featuring a full on fan requested set. Imogen was ultra talkative as usual and made sure everyone in the audience took part with backing.
