LA felt off. Good but off.
Went to the LA show and it was good. The setlist was great. The Former Site Of was a highlight.
But that said, something felt off. I think it’s the rotating nature of the band players but aside from Carl, who here is actually an OG member of this band? In some ways, it felt like a NP cover band. They hit the notes but there wasn’t the passion and excitement of a band who made these songs. They seemed tired and weary and even though they played well, it just felt like they were going through the motions. I love these songs but just wasn’t as moved by them playing them as I wanted to be.
Anyone else catch them recently and have those feelings or am I just off here?
