Great show. Really was a pleasant surprise. Had a great band with six person choir that came out at the end. And for what it's worth, Damon just seemed like a nice guy. From my review title, I thought it was a more upbeat show than I was expecting. I like Blur, but don't know more than the most famous tunes. But I am inspired to pick up Damon's newest.
After finally recording his first solo album "Everyday Robots", Damon Albarn came to Boston as part of a small tour before heading back to Europe to play festivals this summer. Getting to see him in this small 1200-person capacity venue was a treat. While the songs off his solo album are mostly "downbeat" (Damon's words), the arrangements provided by a full band resulted in a lot more energy and excitement compared to the album versions of the same songs (similar to what happens to Radiohead when they play their newer material live). The show consisted of 21 songs and lasted about an hour and forty-five minutes. The setlist covered 9 songs from "Everyday Robots", 4 songs by Blur, 5 songs from Gorillaz. 2 songs from The Good, The Bad & The Queen and 1 song by Rocket Juice & the Moon. While this might have been one of the only shows where Clint Eastwood wasn't played, we got a special treat in hearing the first ever performance of Blur's "Song 2" not played by Blur. Evidently, they spent some time sound-checking the song earlier in the day. The band was great with three of the four members having been part of the 2010 Gorillaz touring line-up.
Damon Albarn is such an excellent performer - he is clearly going to have a long musical life, beyond Blur and Gorillaz. The setlist was a perfect combination of old familiars (Song 2? What?!) and tracks from Albarn's recently-released solo album.
Couldn't be any better, Damon kills it! I had a great time
Small intimate gig, I could say this is the best concert I've ever attended...! Damon is very interactive, the set list are varies from several bands that Damon enlisted with (Blur, Gorillaz, etc).
Do not miss the chance to see Damon Albarn if you are a fan of his work with Blur and Gorillaz...
Enjoyed this concert very much...he played his solo stuff as well as a good selection from his bands Blur and Gorillaz. Ever the consummate frontman, he held the audience's attention with an enthusiastic performance. His talent is palpable.
Damon is unstoppable, a creative force. Great band too!
Great set, new music along with songs from Gorillaz and Blur. Would definitely want to see him again, he kept the crowd happy and moving.
This was one of the best shows ive ever been to!!!
