Last night we saw the Hold Steady and Sean Na Na at Irving Plaza.


Sean Na Na...I forgot they were still around. I had a split EP or something that was enjoyable enough. Live, the songs were pretty good, Mr. Sean plays the part of jerk, and that's that. Apparently next year there's a new album. In the meantime, there are a bunch of songs on their site and myspace.

The Hold Steady and crowd were great. It seemed like everyone wanted to have a good time, and from my perspective, that's what happened. The new album featured heavily and the songs were good. The back up vocals and choruses are fairly huge. I picked up the new cd last night and listened to it a bunch today. It's good and I'm sure I'll listen to it lots.
