I can't explain the feeling of being at a live concert. I just went with Becky to see The Swell Season.  It was incredible.  These folks know how to put on a show (along with Iron & Wine who opened).  It's not only their incredible music, but their interaction with the audience.  They asked us to sing along, listened when people yelled comments, laughed with us, and even asked two girls to come on stage in dance because they noticed them in the audience.  They described their music and what it was meant to convey which added so much to the experience.  They talked about life issues like politics and your heart versus your brain.  And they made jokes and we all laughed.  I felt so connected.  There's nothing quite like music to speak to your soul.
