<\/a>The crowd at last night’s show seemed to be relatively subdued since it was a rainy Wednesday evening. Everyone was singing along throughout the show started right with the opener, Farewell to the Fairground<\/em>. They continued the crowd sing-a-long for To Lose My Life<\/em>\u00a0and The Price of Love,<\/em> which seemed to get the most response from the crowd in terms of joining in. The band played a strong set and kept my attention the entire time considering it was a barebones show with minimal lighting effects. The 2 additional members on synth and second guitar really added depth to their sound. It will be interesting to see if they move in a more synth heavy direction on their next album – we will have to wait and see.<\/p>\n
