We're very lucky to live in a city that is home to so many great bands, like the bands we saw last night. Despite the fact that the temperature outside was below zero and the thought of having to face the cold made us angry, we put on our winter coats and went downtown to see one of our favorite local bands: Stars. Another local band, Young Galaxy, opened the show. We’d never seen Young Galaxy perform, so we were especially excited to see what they would do live. Let me tell you, they are a band definitely worth checking out! Their songs are beautifully written, and their singer can SING. My favorite song they performed last night was called “Firestruck”. Have a listen:
After Young Galaxy’s set, Stars hit the stage, opening with “He Dreams He's Awake,” off their latest record, “The Five Ghosts”. This was the last show of their tour for this particular album, and was definitely the best I'd ever seen them perform. That was mainly due to the fact that they had a bubble machine! Stars had a lot of great moments on stage last night, but the acoustic performance of this song was probably my favorite:
Conclusion: go to shows and support local music! And invest in some gloves - it's getting cold outside.
