Are you kidding me?? Big Pink's slow songs were heartbreakingly beautiful, they were utterly superb and Io Echo's new stuff was fucking amazing. I've never seen a crowd dance and go wild for songs they haven't heard before, but they did for Io Echo. Yeah, Active Child were a bit boring, but I wouldn't say they sound anything like the killers. You need to have your ears checked, douche.

other than aptbs this show was terrible. io echo's new stuff hurt the ears, active child should just be called a shitty version of the killers, and the big pink was a joke. their slow songs were alright but their new song they played and all the upbeat shit might as well just say please play us on kroq….

Io Echo opened before Active Child. Leopold Ross, who plays in that band, was the actual keyboard player for Big Pink that night. Milo was NOT there. They had a different bass player. Leopold usually plays bass.

My evening was Active Child. He offers tunes so beautiful you know he gets it and he's beautiful too. I don't know about the mix, maybe some problems I think .But I was there and lost my breath in the beginning of something big. And hey Big Pink was rocking but Active Child was for me
