I was a huge fan of the Dodos back during their Visiter album. Since them I've continued to watch them, but I find them getting superceded by other bands recently. I don't know what it is, but this was also the case with this new album. Still, I wanted to go to their show - in part to catch the opener, Gauntlet Hair.
Aside the distraction of a superskinny, show-off drummer that sat center stage, these guys were a lot of fun. Check out one of my favorite tracks by them:
So I wish I had more to say about the Dodos performance, but I think it's one of the shows that is much better when you already have a personal connection with the songs, which I just don't have anymore. Maybe (hopefully) they'll come back around for me. I was glad to see they brought such a nice crowd to the Grog (as you can hear in the video)!
