They Might Be Giants

or even larger. [livejournal.com profile] doji_kumoko and I got to see They Might Be Giants in concert here in Athens last night (our first Athens concert!). Met up with [livejournal.com profile] coffeebadass and [livejournal.com profile] robotazalea to go. TMBG were playing at the Georgia Theater and, wow, the acoustics combined with the volume was painful, luckily [livejournal.com profile] coffeebadass (experienced Athens concert goer that he is) brought earplugs for everyone.

The show was fun, they were supporting their new album, The Else but played a lot of classics too including: Istanbul, Fingertips and Particle Man. The only song I would have liked to hear that they did not play was Ana Ng. But their show was fun, the music was good (if to loud) and a good time was had by all. However it did not end until 12:30 am so we were pretty zoned by the time we got home.

There's something wrong with that picture. Instead of requiring everyone to bring earplugs, wouldn't it make a lot more sense to not have the music so loud in the first place? Not to mention the great improvement it'd make in the quality of the sound.

That's just crazy talk.
