[ATTENDED: March 12, 2018] Active Bird Community
I have always loved the name of the headlining band–We Were Promised Jetpacks. I didn’t know too much about their music but what I’d heard I’d enjoyed.
I thought it might be fun to see them in a small setting, so I grabbed a ticket (before they sold out).
The opening band was Active Bird Community who I’d not heard of. Imagine my surprise to see they formed in 2005 (!–apparently when they were ten years old or something) and put their first record out in 2012.
The band had great stage presence (touring for years, obviously). And they wrote incredibly catchy rocking songs. They seemed to be having a lot of fun and I enjoyed their set a lot. I was in front of lead guitarist Andrew Wolfson who was really fun to watch, playing with his gear and making really interesting sounds. (more…)
