BEST SHOW EVER!

I went to the Music Box last night in Hollywood with some friends for the Fun. show. Unfortunately we got there late so I missed the opening acts but its cool because all I really care about is FUN! I've been in love with this band for a very long time starting with The Format days and am always blown away when I see them live. Nate is an amazing performer, so much energy and passion when he sings. Love love LOVE! Was such a great show. (http://www.ournameisfun.com/)

ps. one of my favorite photographs of them (above) shot by Brooklyn based photographer Elizabeth Weinberg. Check out her site she has amazing work.

my friday night just got 100% better.

LCD Soundsystem and Hot Chip @ the hollywood bowl baby! What a G R E A T show!

For my second time at the bowl I've got to say, not too shabby being in free box seats, ha! Pretty intense show, felt like a huge dance rave club. Non-stop dance dance dance, it was awesome. Thank you Amyjo for the tickets, and Katie for the invite! Although our post plans for Little Bar got drowned at the end of the night. Unfortunately Amyjo's car was out of gas and it took a few tests to figure out that's indeed what it was. What an adventure!

the morning benders.

Went to the Music Box last Thursday with a few friends to see The Morning Benders. It was a good show, but I did feel like it took them a little while to start getting into it. It was a little boring at first, they just needed to be a bit more engaging. Towards the end it picked up and was much better. Still disappointed that they did not play Crosseyed or Promises though.

EOV. (east of vermont)

Went to the Culture Collide Festival on Sunday in Echo Park with a few friends. Caught Phantogram and Jenny and Johnny. Both really good shows but Phantogram was definitely my favorite of the two. Another favorite of the festival was the ice cream truck! Lake St. Creamery, o-m-g had the BEST ice cream flavors ever! I had a cream soda and glazed donut ice cream float...heavennnnn! (http://www.lakestreetcreamery.com/) Oh, they also feature the cutest kitten eating a tiny ice cream cone video on their website. They have won my heart.

Tommy and the High Pilots...oh ya and Ludo.

LUDO

Last Friday night I was at The Key Club for the Ludo show. One of my favorite bands Tommy and the High Pilots opened. They were amazing! Based in Santa Barbara, not only is their music ridiculously awesome, they are the nicest people you will find. Please check them out !

last night at the echo.

Ferraby Lionheart.

First Aid Kit.

Went to The Echo last night for the First Aid Kit show. It was really nice. Basia Bulat opened followed by Ferraby Lionheart. Basia is a Canadian singer, very folky style. She sang this one song that was Polish about visiting the zoo, I really liked it. (sorry I didn't record any videos of her performance) Next up was Ferraby Lionheart, they were amazing. The video I recorded of Ferraby got messed up (cough* cough* Marguerite) but you can still hear the audio, so its all good. Also, check out their site (http://www.ferrabylionheart.com/).

First Aid Kit was so so good. Very intimate performance and they were actually quite funny in between songs. Always a good time at the echo.
