Sleepy Train Ben.

Defining cool passed out on a Train.

Webster Hall Bathrooms.

Drunk/Sleepy Ben was intrigued by the

bathrooms.

So he checked them out.

And I took a picture for evidence.

Buds/Sanna Dance Party.

I am going to miss these dudes.

Experience.

This guy knows what Neon Indian is like.

Light Compositions.

A few constellations I found the next

morning on my 500D.

I dig on them.

Neon Indian.

First time making it out to the historically dingy Webster

Hall. A fairly unique experience as the building is laid out

in sections. You walk into and are met by some club-like

dance area directly in front of you. To the right is a small

bar and on both sides of the hall, their are staircases both

of the main dance hall that head both up and down. The

basement houses the coat check, a(nother) bar and a small

stage for warm up bands. On the second floor there is a

the Main Concert Hall and a bar.

Neon Indian was beyond good. They played all their Psychic

Chasms album and a few unreleased tracks as well. After

Neon Indian, they announced Holy Ghost(!) was coming up

next.

It was a pretty funny that Holy Ghost(!) was not on the

tickets. I have never been witness to a surprise show,

but let me tell you, it's decent.

I wanted to get a merch thing but all they had was vinyl

and a shirt that said "I shoud have done Acid with you".

So I didn't buy that.

Dinosaur Feathers.

This band opened for Neon Indian in the basement of

Webster Hall. That's where Ben and I gravitated for most

of the evening because of the $4 beer differentials between

floors ($3 Basment/$7 Main Floor/$11 Concert Hall). They

were surprisingly good for a unknown opener who did not

even get their name on the billing. They started out with

a three man ensemble and continued to grow, inviting

a pair of back-up vocalists and a violinist.

Anyways, they are worth a listen. They head out today

on a 5 week tour of the country ending in SXSW to

promote their new album "Fantasy Memorials".

The Violinist clearly won.
