Loudest show I've ever experienced, maybe slightly surpassed by the following night at Roseland Ballroom. Legitimately scary in places. I'm glad I mostly wore earplugs. In the moments I wasn't, just to get a full sense of the thing, I was hearing the strangest ghost harmonics and overtones in my ears. People whispering in one ear or the other (there was no one there), choirs of voices fluttering by. Absolutely strange and never experienced again.
I saw them on the Loveless tour and for decades it remained one of the loudest and most amazing auditory experiences I've ever had. In recent years I've been able to see them two more times and it's pretty much the same. I know exactly what you mean about getting the full sense of the volume. It's astounding to take in, but then the ear plugs go back in. The other similar concert experience I've had is seeing Spiritualized several times.
Very loud and pretty unforgettable. As the years pass it becomes more and more special that you were there. You got a little bit of something truly special that there is only a limited amount of.
I was at the Toronto show. It's funny I don't remember him looking this young. It's been a minute since then. Saw them again in 2013. I hope to see them again before I die.
Saw them in Richmond this tour and it was mind blowing. Sign were posted warning about the volume. Everyone had their hands in the air as the music and bass infiltrated your body. Music you can see, hear, and feel! Was incredible.
Love how the rest of the band is having fun over on the left and Kevin's just standing there on the right doing his thing. Also you can actually hear Bilinda's guitar!!
saw several of the 2008 shows, incredible. good reminder of how good the visuals where too! anybody know where the video loop of the running girl might be from?
