Tonight. Joint is full but not sold out. Somewhere between 1200-1300, I estimate.

About a third of the set is from their latest release, so give it a listen. Mostly music from the last 3-4 albums. No Bejar on tour either. Good show, impressive vocal harmonies.

I apparently only know 2 of their albums well: Electric Version and Mass Romantic... so sounds like I'm a bit out of luck.

One of our group was convinced Neko was going to do her own opening set. Me: "No, it's Waxahatchee" whoever that is... he still got there early, the rest of us showed up after their set. I tried to explain that the W/ NEKO just meant she was actually showing up this time around.

They pretty much played the same set you saw, I believe. Would have loved more stuff from the first two albums, but oh well.
