Wow! Good for them. I never thought I’d see them for the first time at MSG, but here we are.
I can’t say seeing them in arenas makes me too excited.
The new album is great, I felt they did a pretty good job playing at MSG last year when opening for PJ, so this should be a good tour next year, hope they extend their shows a bit and do something to make the big space work for them.
been seeing them for years and really can’t believe they are playing arenas now. good for them, but not really sure how their sound will translate to the big room. hope they come somewhere closer to Memphis so i can check it out
