There are many elements that make a concert work, but I?d like to remind everyone that crowd participation is very much one of them. This night was the perfect proof for how fun an engaged audience makes a gig you know nothing about.
The impression was more heavily visual, I admit. While the music languishes in sometimes muddled loudness, there was a clear aesthetic going on, heralding back to the 70s, complete with mullets and leather trousers. I loved watching Erik Larson, their tour drummer, holding it down strong as the rest of the band jumped from rhythm changes to guitar solos.
