Vampire Weekend
My roommate and I went to St. Louis to see Vampire Weekend at the Pageant. The concert was sold out so we were far away. I couldn’t even see their footwear choice, which I hear is predominantly boat shoes. Even being far away, it was totally worth it. They played all of their songs that we know from their first CD and played a couple of new ones. I’m curious to hear their new song in the movie Nick and Nora’s Infinite Playlist.
The songs went fast. They were catchy and fun to hear in person because I can now say that I saw the phenom that is Vampire Weekend. They didn’t have strings, but they did the best that they could to perform a great show.
What stole the show was not the music, however. There was an older woman who started interpretive dancing. This became really popular among the high school crowd and started cheering her on. Then she came up to our level and started dancing with the group of kids. It was great to see a group of students so excited about dancing and singing along.
