Beirut @ McCarren Pool, Brooklyn, NYC | pics

Beirut played a free show at McCarren Pool in Brooklyn yesterday (Aug 13, 2006). Not only did they sound great, their professionalism as a band continues to grow. Recently back from playing Moscow, everyone on stage seemed to have a much better grasp of their instruments (and the songs they’re playing with them) than the last time I saw them at Northsix (which was infinitely better than their first show at Knitting Factory).

The Beirut show was even more crowded than the free Of Montreal show, and the (not free) Sonic Youth / Yeah Yeah Yeahs show the day before. Someone told me there was close to 7000 people there.
