Thursday Band • Page 103

I was the English fella loudly complaing and wilting in the heat, you may have spotted me.

 

Hahaha, unfortunately I don't recall that. I have a beard and glasses and was wearing a Pinegrove shirt, so I looked like about 95% of the other people there

 

I didn't make it Sunday either :/

 

Damn, Into the Blinding Light would be incredible to see.

 

Seeing them tonight in buffalo. Haven't seen mwY since UO's farewell tour so very excited for that as well.

 

Let us know how it is! Would love to see mwy w Thursday one day

 

Curious I've many people will be here tonight , buffalo has kinda sucked in the past with regards to showing up to Thursday shows ...

 

Very small crowd for Big Jesus but lots of clapping for em at least. Solid set. Awaiting mwY now.

 

Big Jesus rule

 

Never heard of them, but Thursday brings out cool acts

 

I saw them open for O'Brother and Frameworks last year. Thought they were just okay

 

Frameworks and O'Brother are both so good

 

Never listened to O'Brother either, associate them heavily with Manchester Orchestra though

 

Please do yourself a favor and listen to O'Brother right now

 

Mewithoutyou were terrific, so tight. Crowd filled in more as well. Opened with red cow and January 1979

 

Where do I start

 

They only have three albums and an EP, so I'd say start with Garden Window, work your way forward from there, then come back to The Death Of Day. Either that or start with The Death Of Day and go forward. Garden Window and Endless Light are my favorites from them, but Disillusion and The Death Of Day have some stellar tracks as well

 

Crowd for Thursday was subpar, but the band sounded great. Pretty standard set list but they went nuts during blinding light.

 

Fuck. I can't wait for Wednesday.

 

I'm just glad there was more than 20 people there unlike their farewell tour show in Rochester; that one was rough.

Great show last night. MeWithoutYou was way better than I expected; frontman has great energy.

 

Really with You Were the Cancer was on their Spring setlist.

 

'Pharma bro' Martin Shkreli heads into fraud trial

 

Was at Saturday's show in Toronto and it definitely topped all of my previous Thursday shows (saying something, as they represent many of my most memorable concert memories). Varied career spanning setlist, and was my first time seeing a few songs, including You Were the Cancer. Would have loved an even bigger crowd, but DFM is a big venue, and those there were very engaged.
What I'd say more than anything though was that they seemed to be having so much fun performing together. Appeared to be a lighter mood to the guys, and there was something so exciting seeing them at ease. Even moreso when Geoff talked about his sobriety and how present he feels on stage this tour.

 

This has me really excited for tomorrow.

 

I hope I don't create too high of expectations. I think the other thing that influenced my perception was that the last time I saw them was the farewell tour in Detroit, and the crowd was surprisingly small, and the dark cloud of break-up always makes farewell tours a bit bitter sweet for me. So this time around I was able to enjoy seeing them a lot more without assuming it'd be the last weeks they'd be playing together.
