We arrived at the Enmore Theatre 20 minutes before the scheduled start time and the venue was full of people who didn’t look like they belonged at a Modest Mouse show. This show was a strange one in that the band seemed to be abandoning plans and mixing the set up for what was probably to the detriment of the flow of the show.
The set was drawn from all of their records with “Good News…” being the most represented album with 6 songs. The band played around with arrangements and jammed out a few numbers which was when I enjoyed their set the most. The new songs “Gravity Rides Again” & “Poison The Well” were both interesting numbers and encouraging signs of what a long overdue new album might hold. The highlights were "Satin In A Coffin", "Dance Hall", "King Rat" & "Gravity Rides Everything"
Though they didn't didn't quite get there it was still a great night out with one of America best bands.
