I Just Read About That…

[DID NOT ATTEND: August 16, 2023] Sigur Rós

Few bands are as amazing live as Sigur Rós.  I never thought I would deliberately not get tickets to a Sigur Rósshow.

When they announced a limited tour of Sigur Rós with Wordless Music Orchestra (a 41 piece orchestra), I wanted to go immediately.  I saw the closest show was New York, which is a pain in the butt.  But it would be worth it.  Then I saw how expensive the tickets were and I couldn’t bring myself to buy them.  I realize that they are paying a 41 piece orchestra, but I just couldn’t do it.

It will either be the most transcendent thing in the universe or it may be too much–Sigur Rós is able to do some amazing things as a three piece after all.

Perhaps they’ll release a video of it.
