Japandroids @ Metro on 12.13.2012

On Thursday night (12/13) Japandroids toured through Chicago to play a sold-out show at Metro. Their recent tourmates Diiv were supposed to open but dropped off of the Chicago show in order to play Letterman. David Vandervelde, who recently polished off a residency at The Burlington, opened the show instead but we unfortunately missed him. Were you there? How were Japandroids and David?
