Once again, it was a great concert. Laetitia Sadier was impressive enough with just her and her guitar that being alone on stage really wasn’t an issue. The crowd really enjoyed her set, and she had plenty of energy. Beirut’s set was a bunch of fun. They played mostly crowd favorites, wi[...]

Photos: Braids, Pepper Rabbit, and Painted Palms @ The Firebird, St. Louis, 10/06/2011
This show was fantastic. Especially Braids. Their musicianship was impeccable, the sound was incredible, and they had this somewhat timid and humble stage presence between songs that really suited them well, and contrasted nicely with the way they owned the stage during the songs. Quite possibly my [...]
Neon Indian, Asobi Seksu, and Née at the Firebird – St. Louis, 6/8/2011
Yesterday was a typical summer day for St. Louis: hot, hazy and humid. The perfect kind of day for a healthy dose of Neon Indian, and that’s exactly what I got last night. After a few problems getting in, the night was underway, and it was well worth the wait.[...]
Concert Review: Here We Go Magic with AroarA @ The Firebird, St. Louis 5/7/2011

Concert Review: The National w/Owen Pallett @ The Pageant, 9.30.10
Several months ago when I saw that The National was coming to town, I grew extremely excited, bought a ticket as soon as they went on sale, and began working on getting my photo pass. With each passing month, my excitement would grow even more, building up to the week before the show, where it [...][...]
Concert Review: Passion Pit, Tokyo Police Club, Brahms
As we (the friend I went to the show with and I) arrived at the Pageant last night to see Passion Pit, we were well aware of the fact that the show was sold out. We were a little later in arriving than planned, and by the time we got there at 6:20, the lines [...][...]
