Death Cab for Cutie


Jason and I enjoyed a very nice concert last night at the Red Butte Garden venue. It was an outdoor concert with a very relaxed atmosphere.
Ra Ra Riot opened up the show, and they were quite good. I loved the girl's cello--it was very unique! I love strings in bands, so this was something I really enjoyed.
After Ra Ra Riot, Andrew Bird performed. He has an amazing voice, and his whistling is quite good as well as entertaining. The glasses weren't bad either...And finally, Death Cab for Cutie performed! They are one of my favorite bands, and it was awesome to see them live. They are true musicians, and I really enjoyed watching them perform. Ben Gibbard has a ton of energy and gave a great performance. I just wish they could've played all my favorite songs...too bad I have too many! It would've taken them all night!
We had pretty decent seats. It was nice to be so close!
We went with our friends Angie and Nolan. They probably thought we were crazy for dancing and goofing off like we did...but hey! We had a great time!
It was a sunny day...thank goodness! At first, it was too hot but then it cooled off as the sun got lower in the sky.
All in all, a great way to spend the evening. If any of those bands are ever in your area, I highly recommend you check them out!
