The Jukebox #16 - Post Game show - Tokyo Police Club, Two Door Cinema Club and Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin. Masquerade Jan. 25th 2011.

Jan. 25th I left work extremely excited. Met up with the girl I'm dating to check in at Highland Inn and then went to Camelli's for their fantastic Monster Slice, a pitcher of Yuengling, some good conversation and was told an awesome story that reminded me of the movie Go. Then we embarked on our walk to the Masquerade to see a show that I knew was going to be amazing. With that line up how couldn't it? Add in some PBR's and we were ready to rock. First up was Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin. They opened with Back of the Saddle which was awesome, then they went into a set that was mostly material from the most recent album and a couple from their first two albums. The highlight for me was definitely Modern Mystery, since that is my favorite song from them. The sound was amazing and their vocals were perfect. I felt like I was listening to the album right there. The only downside to their show was that it was to short. I think they were on only 30 to 35 minutes. Which is understandable since they're the opener. Other than that fantastic. My date, Teresa, even said she was going to try to book them for a show at Georgia State if it was possible. Next up was Two Door Cinema Club. I was really excited for this show because I've heard so many things about how awesome they are live. They did not disappoint. They opened with Cigarettes in the Theatre and then continued with songs from Tourists History and their Eps. They even debuted a new song that was fucking killer. Their entire show was just a big dance party and had just an amazing energy to it. Along with the opener and Tokyo Police Club, the sound at the show, vocals and everything, were fantastic. Highlights from their show were What You Know (the slow build up to the start of the song makes that song even better), I Can Talk (closer), and the new track. I really loved the new song. Next up was Tokyo Police Club, after a random debate about PDA and what's appropriate and what isn't (I won, possibly?) they opened with Favourite Colour, which is one of my favorite tracks, and did a great job of juggling new tracks and playing old tracks from Elephant Shell and A Lesson in Crime. Bambi was fantastic live as well as Your English is Good (the closer before the encore). Now I was lame and didn't stay for the encore, it was late on a tuesday and I'm old, but I was more than satisfied by what I saw. Police Club definitely continued and matched the energy that Two Door Cinema Club started before they performed. All in all the show was amazing and I recommend that if they bring their tour to anywhere near you then make sure to buy a ticket and be prepared to have your face rock off!

Not the performance from Masquerade, but this is the rendition that they did for the show.
