My wife and I really wanted to see Kevin Morby open so we were there around 7:45. Morby went on at 8. I think he's doing the Houston show too. He only played for half an hour and was off the stage at 8:30. Lord Huron came on at 9:05. The pit area at Toyota Music Factory can be very small. It was last night. We were only about three "rows" deep and decided we'd stay there until we didn't want to any longer. (We stayed there the entire show.) Maybe catch the beginning of Lord Huron and move back a bit. Not sure what the setup will be in Houston.
Oh, it's a scene alright. We enjoyed it. They couldn't get into most of the theater stuff when we saw them headline at High Water Fest back in April. Great show but it was "just the songs." I thought the visual aspects of the show were spectacular. Had kind of Fallout Pacific Northwest feel to it. They played a terrific set and this is easily in my top 10 shows of the year, maybe top five -- though that's getting a little crowded as we get to the end of the year and we've got Luna in early December.
