A very simple show, nothing fancy about it. They didn't even have a lighting guy, I think the Webster Hall techies did it! Just fun times and rock and roll. You could tell those blokes were just as excited to be in NY as we were to FINALLY have them back!
Super lovely vibe. Never seen the audience so intuned! An all together super lovely show!!
The Fratellis are the best band no one's heard of. Friday night, November 1, they opened their U.S. tour with a show at Webster Hall in NYC to a sold-out audience that had to number around 1,000, which was probably far more than the legal limit for the room. The band played a good mix of classic (yes, their first album's only 6 years old, but it's a classic) songs from their first LP, "Costello Music", a few from their follow-up "Here We Stand" and a number of new songs from their just-released album "We Need Medicine." As the band's leader, Jon handled the intros between songs, speaking with the crowd enthusiastically; he wasn't just going through the motions. The band's phenomenal, with Jon on guitar, vocals and those outstanding hooks, Baz on bass and Mince mashing the drums and breaking sticks throughout. They performed 24 songs and I won't review individual songs other than to say that you should download all three albums and any bonus track releases you can because The Fratellis are the best band of the 21st century so far. It's hard to believe that this band hasn't broken in the States yet because they're huge in the UK.
• Great venue • Excellent sound quality • It was clear the band was having fun too • Opening act was worth getting in early for • Very high energy for a two hour show • Did a very good mix of new songs in with favorites • They did an awesome cover of Run Around Sue in their encore
Great live and a 30 min encore. Awesome. Played a lot of old stuff and some new. They still got it. So good made me purchase their new album.
They were fantastic. Everything I expected and more.
