So last night was the Haiti Benefit show. Packed house, which makes you realize how nice the set up at The Slowdown is, considering my giant frame could easily move through out the crowd and for once they weren't taking 25 years to get your drink. I had never seen Tilly and the Wall and I am a little disappointed they didn't have their tap dancer on stage. Bright Eyes reminded me why I stopped listening to his music, I am no longer an angst ridden suburban teenager. I really enjoyed some of Bear Country's set, and I would like to see them again.
My one big complaint is that never once did I hear an artist on stage urge people to donate to the Red Cross in order to help Haiti. I am not sure if this would of thrown them and most of the crowd into an Emo Overload, but it was the whole reason we were all there, well at least the supposed reason. I also don't understand why no one did the obvious and cover The Arcade Fire's Haiti...
Any way, this photo is a composite of both Tilly and the Wall and Bright Eyes, I love my iPhone...
