when I say that they literally took a shit all over every live act i\'ve seen before saturday, i am not exaggerating in the least bit. the sound at berklee was amazing and they proceeded to play the most tight, powerful, awe inspiring hour and a half set i\'ve seen any band lay down. there are acts that stand out as having blown me away (daft punk @ lollapalooza, the flaming lips @ moe.down 4) and this topped the best of them. the setlist was top notch, they played every song i could want to hear(kelly watch the stars, talisman, la femme d\'argent, venus, alpha beta gaga, cherry blossom girl, alone in kyoto, sexy boy, love, do the joy) and the light/projection production was top notch. i\'ve never seen a more attentive crowd either. if the music wasn\'t so loud, you\'d be able to hear a pindrop during the songs, everyone in attendance was sitting and just focused on hearing every last note and every second between songs they erupted in applause of the last song and anticipation of whats next. half the crowd was speaking french or other languages, i wouldn\'t be surprised if a few hundred people came all the way from europe to see this tour. the band seemed genuinely excited to be playing the venue and for us and it really showed in their flawless playing.
