Atoms for Peace, Live at Roseland (4/6/2010)

Posted on April 8, 2010

I'm still recovering from the lack of sleep that comes from attending a show in the city and getting up for work four hours after getting home.   It's been worth it so far, since Thom Yorke and friends put on an amazing show Tuesday night (and probably Monday, too).


The night started with an explosion near Times Square, which delayed the start of the show about an hour. The entrance line was around the block, starting on 53rd, around to 8th Ave, and down 51st. Fortunately my tickets were purchased on Thom's site, w.a.s.t.e., and I was able to skip most of the line to grab my presale will-call tickets and head right inside.




I don't think anyone was expecting to see or hear real instruments used in place of electronic synths and drum machines and the like, but that's exactly what we got: a great multi-instrumentalist/keyboard guy; excellent drummer; unbelievable multi-percussionist dude; Flea on bass (mostly); and Thom on piano, guitar, and vocals (of course).  And they all put on a great show.

Now, like the girl on the phone said,

I'm down to hang, but I have work early in the morning.
