Some blurry pics from the Fiery Furnaces show on Saturday

They played at Northsix in Williamsburg, and while I won't go as far to say that it was a show for the record books, it definitely good. They played more or less the entirity of their new record, "Rehearsing My Choir," minus, of course, grandma. And a lot of "the hits" were reworked almost beyond recognition, which is interesting as a music fan because you want to hear your favorite songs as you know them on the record because then you can sing along and jump when you're suppose to jump, but conversely, that's why you have the album. Really, shouldn't you want to have a live band mix things up a little bit? Put their stamp on a particular show. It's a funny give and take the rock fan must comes to terms with.

Opening act: KAPOW!.

After the show we went to the bar and had some spirits. This, in hindsight was foolish, as if we'd traveled in the opposite direction we could have been treated to a free show by The Arcade Fire
