I finally saw this wonderful band up at Mercury Ballroom in Louisville. They played to a raucous crowd of about 300. Band played a good selection of hits & some of their most recent material. Lead singer was having a great time up there. He never stops moving. Had a time trying to get some good pics of him. I was on the rail, in front of the bassist. He's the only member of band who has no vocal duties. When I moved from that spot to look at merch, I gave my spot to this young lady & I got a look like I've rarely received in life (ha, ha).

Watched the encore from the disabled pit, beside the lead singer/bassist of excellent opening act Omni. He said this was the first night of a new setlist for band. Performed 4 songs in encore. Crowd did not want them to leave.

One of the top 3 sets I've ever sen at that venue. These guys need another great album to make their case for The Hall. I expect them to do that. Definite candidates for our Projected Hall. If you haven't seen them, you sure need to.

Thanks for the recommendation, Paul! I did like Franz Ferdinand back in the day and I enjoy listening to their few hits they had. I can picture the lead singer being very active and energetic on stage. I'm sure to make them on my bucket list. Hopefully they'll turn out at a festival in the future or in my neck of the woods.
