Nov 2nd-Toronto, Canada
Phoenix Concert Theatre
and
Nov 3rd-Buffalo, New York
Town Ballroom
Grammy-winning They Might Be Giants did a weekend double-header in Toronto and Buffalo…and so did I, thoroughly enjoying both shows. Buffalo’s Town Ballroom is a fantastic venue with great sightlines, sound, and a GIANT DISCO BALL that co-frontman John Linnell seemed quite amused with.
My guest is a frequent concert-goer but didn’t know any of TMBG’s music. We both loved the band’s playful, self-deprecating attitude and rapport with the crowd. It added an extra layer to some fantastic musicianship and eclectic instrumentation that was very engaging for the full length of the 2+ hour show.
