The National - I'm afraid of everyone.
Basically I don't have the drugs to sort it out...
I think I have a couple more to post from the Knox.

This is one of my favie Leonard Cohen songs. I think Rufus sings just about better than anyone. But I have to say that I am quite fond of John Cale's live version from the 1990s.

The National Rockin' at the KnoxCategory: concerts
I was pleasantly surprised by the event last night. The crowd was well behaved with the exception of the typical cloud of smoke that seems to hover around every WNY outdoor concert. It seemed that they were there just to be seen and to support the Knox, which is fine and good in my book.
Just to be perfectly honest the only reason why I went was to see The National and Matt did not leave me disappointed at all. Here is the final song "Terrible Love." Plus I have to say the way it ended left me left me ecstatically shocked! It was good to see that he kept the momentum up from the Radio City show 2 nights earlier. Totally reminds me of the Pearl Jam Even Flow video back in the day.

I was over on the left side of the stage with (e:joshua), sound mix was a little crappy, but the band put on a great show

(e:vincent), I think I was standing close to you for the National. They were amazing -- every bit as good as promised and then some.
Rufus was also amazing in his own way -- but I expected that. The National was my personal revelation of the evening.

The National were awesome. Went there with Josh and the object of my affections. Did you see Atlas Sound? It is a one person act, Bradford Cox from Deerhunter, who are also really awesome. He is a very talented and creative guy - on his latest album he did collabs with Panda Bear from Animal Collective and also Laetitia Sadier from Stereolab. Honestly I was just as stoked to see him as The National and it was a great time. Didn't see all of Rufus but what I saw I enjoyed immensely.
