The sea, the moment of completeness

paper_tzipporah and I went to see The Jezabels, and they were pretty much amazing. It's always interesting to find out if singers/bands sound worse than/as good as/better than they sound on an album, and I think they fall into the 'as good as if not better than' demographic. They didn't chat much with the crowd until the end, but there was a really good vibe on stage, and you could tell that the band was invested in their music, so. :D Good times all around!
They played Rosebud, City Girl, Long Highway, and Endless Summer from their full album (and maybe one or two more than I didn't recognize at the time? I think Trycolour and Nobody Nowhere?), and then they also sang Mace Spray, A Little Piece, Dark Storm, Easy to Love, and Hurt Me. (They didn't play Sahara Mahala, which made Joni a sad panda.) It was all awesome, and I would LOVE to see them again.
The first opener was this dude who wasn't all that great, so I don't remember his name. But! the second opener! It was a band called Imagine Dragons, and Joni and I LOVED them! Their songs were just overall powerful and heavy and interesting, and watching them was kind of intense. Also the lead singer was really sweet and engaging between songs. Uh, basically I loved them enough to buy their music right when I got home. I have to say that they're a little less impressive recorded, but it's all good. If you ever have the chance to see them perform, do it! I meant to put one of their songs on tumblr this morning, but I overslept - I'll do it tonight! :)
Anyway, time to get some work done. Peace out, yo.
