Never seen a show at the Opera House. I am assuming it's seated. Want to see LSF, but I also want to show up late so that I don't have to see Vivian Girls.

how is rain machine headlining a date of this? Kyp's side-project is fucking terrible. Does anyone even like him solo?

I'm sure it wont stay seated. Even last year when Beirut played the audience rushed the stage...and, I mean, Les Savy Fav crowd vs. Beirut...

This event was really fun! The images serve as a proof that it was really an unforgettable night. For sure, this will be a great talk of the town for the people because they enjoyed much.
