manchester orchestra

i am going to act like a music reviewer* for this post:

seeing the same band twice in 6 months takes talent.
to be in the exact same place as you were 6 months ago ALSO takes talent.

but really the only one who has REAL, actual, talent in this scenario is andy hull. the lead singer/song-writer for manchester orchestra, and the second time that i see them live.. ended the same - yet thankfully entirely differently- i just feel amazed. they dont do a whole lot of interacting with the crowd, which i normally would wish for. {im all about the connection with the artist}. but some reason, with them its almost better this way. its to the point, no fluff. just like their music.

and that elijah kid said it best: 'the tone of andys guitar tonight was to die for!'

only i didnt technically notice that. {i cant even air guitar with out doing it wrong}
i did however, notice that they had two guys on drums, that andy hull is married {or at least likes to wear a ring on his ring finger} and the guy standing next to me.. needed a shower, and a haircut. i noticed that a lot of kids are constantly on their phones.. even in the pit. i noticed all those things.

but. i am mostly noticed that they played the three songs i was hoping they would play!
{dear, pensacola and 100 dollars}
really, what more can you ask for? oh i would ask for madeleine and kale to be there with me, like last time.

*cause thats the proper name of such a title 

and for some reason all i want to listen to now is patrick stumps new album.
