We Got Our Asses Off The Couch And Saw Two Door Cinema Club

We were there! At Bowery Ballroom! And Donald took photos! And I danced like a nerd! But we were too busy eating hamburgers afterwards to make a video review, since there's nothing attractive about someone eating a chili-topped food. (Duh.)

It's really kind of nutty that this was the band's second show in New York ever. No Facebook invites, no begging for friends to come out on a Wednesday night, no loading in and out of a miniature bar-club hybrid with people drunkenly blabbing the entire show — the kids (literally, their age makes it borderline inappropriate for me to find them as precious as I do) leapfrogged to selling out Bowery weeks in advance, packing the place to the walls with a crowd singing along to their choruses. Quite the warm welcoming for a band whose majority of members have never even stepped foot in Manhattan before.

I can't really tell their songs apart because I like all of them. And because they all sound kind of similar. But also because I like them. Maybe because they all sound similar. But yes, I like them. A lot. And if you like easily accessible, cheerful songs to boogie along to, you should too.

The end.
