They opened up for Interpol.
The Liars did a raucous set, but I would have loved to see them in a smaller venue. the theatre where they played was a big cavernous sound muddier thing. I have seen sonic youth there and they sounded much better, better sound guy I guess, plus they always turn the volume down on the opening act to make the headliner seem bigger and better. I love when the band interacts with the crowd and their singer was very funny. he made a crack about how going to see Interpol is very "sexy".
fuck Interpol were mediocre and dull. I felt bad for half the crowd because I could tell that that boring mid-tempo interpol wankery was the single most rockinest show they will go see all year. fools, FOOLS I SAY! Did Interpol always have a keyboard player playing very superfluous chords barely heard over their The Edge-like guitar foppery? that shit sucked. I wanted to scream "Stop singing about your girlfriend!!!"
free tix is free tix though, and there were some beautiful ladies there.
