Went to see these guys last night. One of those bands that I think are really good but even better live. Anyone else like them? Been to one of their gigs?

Average age of audience was definitely a lot higher than usual, upward towards 40 I would say. One good thing from that (not that theres anything bad about it) is practically no muppets holding mobile phones up the whole gig recording it. Small pleasures!

i saw them a few years ago, they were alright, but the night before i had seen sufjan stevens in the same venue and he blew me away, and calexico's support was beirut, who i thought was/were much more exciting. but calexio are a good solid band, can't fault them as such.
