Cymbals Eat Guitars / Pains of Being Pure at Heart

“Pains went on at 9:15 and Webster Hall was packed. I wonder if it sold out? They played a great set, and I finally got to see them play the song that made me a fan of theirs, “A Teenager in Love.” But for me, my two favorite songs are “Come Saturday” and “Everything With You.” Matt told me that he knows that those are the two songs I like because that’s the only time he’ll ever see me move. Yeah, at shows I’m pretty dis-affectionate. It seems that Pains get better every time I see them. And on a personal level, it is true that with new music, I really don’t like a good 98% of what’s out there, but I love Pains and they’ll receive my full support. And I’m no one special, but I am blatantly honest. They write such beautiful, sincere, and catchy music, and the members are some of the nicest people I’ve ever met, and both Kip and Peggy gave me a hug when I ran into them at the show. Aww, you guys are awesome. And interestingly enough, when I got home from the show I had a last.fm friend request from Kip. (we have “very high” compatibility according to last.fm’s taste-meter)” [Alex Caprio]

Cymbals Eat Guitars, The Depreciation Guild, and The Pains of Being Pure at Heart played one of the last shows on their tour together in their hometown of NYC, at Webster Hall on Saturday night (10/3). More pictures from the show below…
